Cannot do the test without pay...

Good beginning, challenging end

This course is fun!!

Got what i need :D

Good for beginners

good course

I don't understand in the final assignment it says the written part is optional yet you ask us to grade our peers based upon the written part of the assignment. Very unclear. All the Berklee advertisements are heavy handed and annoying making it seem like you're just trying to get more people to spend too much money on a degree. The fundamental instruction is great though and easy to follow along.

Great instructor!

The content is basic and with appropriately narrow scope of theory and applications.

Too much blues focus and it's extremely unfortunate that participation is required given there is no control to remove it or hide your name when this is open to everyone around the world. As a CourseraPlus subscriber, I also have to use my real name. Won't be taking any more.

The course materials are well done, but unless you pay for the class, you have difficulties completing material week to week. For example, you can not take any of the multiple choice tests (and unless you pay, of course you can't submit assignments, which is fine). Then, you are said to be overdue or locked out for the next week's classes because you did not complete the assignments. There is a workaround it, which is tedious and time-consuming (you have to redo information from the prior week) and not where I want to spend my time. Other classes allow you to audit the class, even take multiple choice quizzes (which can be machine graded), without being "pushed" to pay for the class.

There were also times it was impossible to log into the class due to a slow system. Then, once logged in, you have to "redo" prior week's stuff to move ahead. Ridiculous.

You cannot progress as you desire. Stupid exercises for advanced users you cannot bypass. Waste of time.

Despite being a paid course, it doesn't provide any interaction or reviewing from the faculty AT ALL.
