Great course, though a little difficult in parts, particularly the first week. Worth working through though for a better understanding of probability and statistics.

I like really course content but it would be better to add exlaination for quiz (especially when initial answer is wrong, now student can only see explainations when answer question right)

Love the course, and its willingness to delve into the basics of the theory behind biostatistics. Wish there were more like it.
