This is a course which I enjoyed. It gave a good insight of the learning methodologies which we have often heard of but not given due importance. Also, the brain facts is cool :) My 5/5 to this course

The best course so far. I feel like this course actually showed us things we would be doing day to day in the workplace. It's nice to problem solve since that will probably be a big chunk of the job.

Really good if you are mostly on-prem and use Microsoft products. Not a lot for an Apple fleet + remote team yet.

I believe most of these techniques are good, but with more automation much of these task are no longer needed.

It was not to bad, the labs did let me down with tech issues and being slow. But, overall not a bad course.

Qwiklabs are still an issue. Some supplementary readings are outdated but still serve the learning purpose.
