I am currently studying Chemical Engineering. However, after going for industry training as a data analyst, I decided to venture more in this direction and I really learn a lot from this course.

Very basic, too much interviewing people and few content.

The IBM Cloud account setup fails very often, issues with keys and required to send emails.

Few questions are misleding if not wrong:

- the one asking which one is an example of semi-structured data where both emails and Tweets are actually semi-structured data.

- Other example the one asking to count unique values in a SQL statement where COUNT and DISTINCT are two options while the correct answer should be COUNT DISTINCT

This was a deep dive into the data world that provides so much knowledge that could be beneficial to any data professional. I did not find the interview of data engineer videos to be a productive use of time. They mainly reiterate what you have already learned in the previous videos. 3 stars because I was disappointed with the lack of technical skill-building compared to the Google Data Analytics certificate program.

This introduction class is ok for a beginner, but I don't recommend it. Lots of theory, little practice. Practice requires registration for an IBM cloud, but even their infrastructure is error-prone. One or two videos are a bit repetitive of the same content from previous videos.

A lot of content and time is about Data Engineering careers, etc. including quiz questions. These are good to know as a FYI but I don't think it should be included in course quizzes.

Everything is extremely redundant. Practice quizzes are identical to the video. This does not reinforce learning only memorization. Try asking the questions in a different way

Quá nhiều nội dung quan điểm của chuyên gia

Các quan điểm gần như không thống nhất đến một mục tiêu

Các câu hỏi quá ít không cover được toàn bộ nội dùng học tập

Feels AI generated. Mind numbingly easy. Still - good enough if you're starting at zero.

Found the topics to be a little abstract, without much concrete information.

Very dense, not enough coursework to reinforce retention of the material.
