It's a great course because even it's based on theory not practical(Which cover in next courses in specialization) but still, at final assignment submission, you feel great that you tackle a problem.

One of the best courses I've taken through Coursera, but also one of the most enjoyed courses. I'd recommend this course for those interested in learning business metrics and business analysis.

The course is informative. I love the content and the subject, but it's dry in places, and it gets challenging to maintain my attention.

Good introduction to business metrics. I was less enthusiastic about all the investment metrics and formulas, but that might just be me.

Very basic course, pretty much an introduction into the Excel to SQL specialisation. Final assignment is not too challenging.

Very basic terms. Not very helpful for later concepts and would not recommend for business professionals that have experience

A lot of time devoted to the job stuff may not be super relevant for most students, and was certainly not super relvant too.

The course for me was very simple and basic. I recommend it to students who makes their firs steps in this area.

I was really hoping it would get more into the use of tools like SQL, not just mention them as being important.

need course to be more deeper in specific/each content, and the grading is quite not reflect learning results.

The course content is good. However, by the review assigment i can see that the concepts were not clear, ther

I wish the class went slower through the business metrics, showing more how to calculate and more examples.

The course is very short and has a small content. Final assignment doesn't have a straightforward grading.

A very useful course for budding professionals. Wouldn't recommend this to middle managers / data experts.

Very good course, only 1 BIG disadvantage: you cannot take the quizzes unless you buy the certificate...

Interesting enough, good start to the specialization but not the most content for a standalone course.

the data is very important but it needs much practical explanation and the tools used is not enough

Good for beginners but the 3rd week is not explained in a clear way. Instructor was too hasty.

SO "HARD" to learn! I honestly can not understand at least 20% even now when I completed.

not much is taught here but I guess should be a good beginning for the specialization.

The third week seemed like random content and did not go with the rest of the course.

Sometimes it seems very "mechanic". The instructor is clearly reading a script.
