unfortunately, the certificate was not generated, which was disappointing. Although the course content was informative and well-structured. I hope this issue is resolved for future learners.

Good course. The probability portion is very challenging. Dr. Eggers is a tremendous instructor, but I did not feel adequately prepared for the some of the practical application in the quizzes.

The final course on Probability can definitely be reworked upon. Otherwise, the entire module was pretty good.

The last module could have been done better. More examples to be included for explaining probability problems.

Goes through the basics, but the last part with the most important information was not very helpful.

Concepts are not explained thoroughly. Not totally for beginners. Great problem questions.

There is no practical usage of it. There can be a project which shows its practical usage.

Good concepts but too brief. Not for rusty minds. WD40 refreshers needed now and then.
