Both this course and the first one of this series are very dumbed down for lack of better words. A lot of it seems like busywork. I think it's good to try to get the students to interact through several activities, but honestly, there isn't too much useful information being presented in them.

The course was as good as others but someone that has been working professionally for years it felt unnecessary. For someone that is new to work environments I can definitely see the need. Maybe there could be a third option for certification students to skip the work professional steps.

Very little information about asking questions. Many lessons are not relevant. Not suitable for people who have working experience. It's more like a soft skill class in high school. If you've started to work, you don't have that much time to spend on these soft skills and theory videos.

Course was fine, but all of my progress got wiped when I took a few weeks off from working on the course. I had done weeks 1-3 and had to go back through it again, including all assignments. Could not get in touch with Coursera about the issue. Hope this doesn't happen to anyone else.

Appreciate the details of course. However, this course may include many repetitive illustration of the concept from Course 1 and 2 e.g. ASK, PREPARE, PROCESS, ANALYSE, SHARE, ACT from different instructors in different videos. It will be good to combine them into a single video instead

This part of the course felt like it had a lot of filler. Some of it would be better suited at the end of the course when you want people to begin focusing on how to interact with businesses and collogues. I think the info was valuable but out of place. it felt like it slowed me down.

Generally the content of the course is great and the explanations are very good. I personally however would like to do more in-depth analysis like the course challenge throughout the course instead of the multiple choice, because I believe it will strengthen the knowledge much more.

Some of the questions in the test are just propagating an agenda like an anti feminist can be triggered after the whole test and can not give the test peacefully. my suggestion would be don't use social or political ideologies to be in the course as some people may get triggered.

This course felt a bit redundant In Its video Information. The videos were short but they seem to repeat themself with the briefing and the expectations of the course. I would like to spend more like practicing the application process and less time writing summering situations.

Very easy with some questions being more common sense based than actually reading and watching the tutorials. Also 3 attempts every 24 hours is rather generous, as it's virtually impossible to get one of 8 questions wrong after three goes. He says, for little does he know...

I loved the foundations course and felt like I learnt a lot. However, this course was a bit of a letdown for me since I haven't learned as many new things as I did in course 1. Ximena is a good instructor but with better material or scope, the course would be much better.

Great, I can't imagine a perfect course rather than this. I really loved this course because this course let me feel like a professional data analyst. Not just theories, but also gave a ton of communication and real life situation practices. My Advice, TAKE THIS COURSE!

There were two hands-on project where I was asked to come up with questions on my own, and left me paralyzed with what situation, or company I would be working with before asking the kind of questions relevant to the company/situation. Everything else was great.

There was so many videos; it get mundane. I like the hands-on approach and less vids. I have a hard time becoming a data analysist when I dont know how to actually do the work. This seems like a course for people that already know how to analyze data.

The Instructor was easy to understand but the content was all over the place. Spreadsheets were fun but beside that it was a serious struggle to stay focused and motivated, my mind kept drifting. Where as week 4 seriously felt like physical torture.

Ximena is an excellent instructor but I feel that there was a lot of non-technical content compared to the technical part. At some point in the course I started to feel like I was taking a communications course and not a 'data analytics' course.

Overall pretty good. However, some parts were unnecessarily stretched and repeting very simple and boring info. The best parts were in the beginning where they talked about actual tools and spreadsheets and taught us things related to them.

I know the big selling point for this program is being able to complete it regardless of one's background, but at times this course felt overly simplistic. Going into such detail on such fundamental skills felt a little drawn out for me.

Definitely tougher than the last course. Too many times there were quiz questions with answer choices using terms we hadn't learned yet. Very nerve-racking when you are new to a subject. Overall I was satisfied with what I learned.

My only issue is that some questions really don't make sense. They are too vague and could be interpreted a million different ways depending on your own business structure, goals, and expectations. More specific questions, please!

I felt that this course focus a bit too much on definitions, and didn't have enough practical skill based labs. While I appreciate the communications aspect, I feel it would be better to focus on hard skills before soft skills.

The course was mostly about spreadsheets formulas and functions and about the types of questions which a data analyst should be asking himself and the stakeholders, before/once he takes up a project and start his analysis.

It's good to know about useful things like spreadsheets but it wasn't enough. Again like the first course, the second course also contain a lot of talking a little of doing. Also the discussion areas aren't helpful at all.

The course was a bit drawn out. I found the narration of the text very boring. Just watching a person speak in almost a monotone. The final exam was nice. Actual analysis. Need to have more of such situational discussions.

The transmissibility of the instructor was a little bit difficult to follow, in comparison with the other instructors of the courses before and ahead, that were much more energetic, alive and clear in the video lessons..
