Excellent course! I already knew a lot about R - but this class helped me solidify what I already knew, taught me lots of new tricks, and now I have a certificate that says I know `something' about R!

Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

There was some mismatches between what was thought in the lectures and what was tested as part of assignment.

Videos were really good ,but then the assignments were complex and not related to what was taught in Videos.

If the lecture could be practical (i.e... lectures + working it on R console), I would learn it even better.
