Amazing Course. I only add more setp-by-step excel details to follow in a more accurate way the instructor. Sometimes the assumptions change really fast and follow exercises are tough due the explanation and changes made.

Sadly, the lecturer is very hard to understand. He finishes basically every sentence with "right?", which is only one of the reasons that the videos are really hard to watch. It seems like the lectures weren't really thought out. I paid the course fee directly at the beginning, otherwise I would never have paid a cent for this.
