Pretty good course. In my opinion the reading material was a bit brief and did not really cover the quiz questions. Other than that though it was pretty clear and relatively easy to understand.

This is my first course in Coursera. I appreciated the high level views of data analytics and review of many of the processes and tools used therein. I found a couple of the quiz questions to be a bit subjective, referencing specific speakers' views on the topic. But, this is not enough to not recommend this course. The final exam is a guided exercise in data analysis that offers a great balance of giving the student a challenge while also making it attainable. This exam is also peer reviewed. I did not like that one of my responses was marked down because it did not exactly match the key of "some of" the possible correct answers, when I believe I either fully met or exceeded the requirements for full credit on that question. Again, the course is still worth taking.
