I have thoroughly enjoyed this course, as well as all the courses in the Specialization. The instructors do an excellent job of breaking down each subject in an easy to understand logical progression.

I would rate this higher, but there were missing practice challenges for some weeks. Would have been helpful to better understand the process and structure for implementing the formulas/functions/process.

Not as good as previous 3 courses. The teachers do not go into as much detail and expect you to know things that they have not taught about excel and or advanced finance and economic topics.

Not the best course in the specialization. The 3 courses prior to this one were excellent. Some concepts were not taught properly, although some useful data cleansing techniques were taught.

Essential Basic Intermediate I and II are great courses.

Advanced needs more detail. Sometimes questions asked in the exams are not covered in the course videos and it is confusing.

This course was a little difficult to keep everything together. I get that they want us to problem solve but some times it feels so hard to figure out!

It's a good course, but it seems as if the teachers were not so committed to putting the same effort and quality that there was in previous courses.

Not much useful compare to previous courses. Besides, not really clear about the explanation causes very hard to do the assessment quiz.

They should provide step by step solution for weekly quizzes.

Difficult course. Go through the intermediate course before.

It helps to take this *immediately* after completing Interm I & II! Then all the content will still be fresh in your mind.

Felt the explanations of the problems were not too clear and the information may not be useful for everyday use.

It's ok, but not recommended for someone who uses excel on a everyday basis, you won't learn much more ;)
