There is a disconnection between the reading materials and the R exercises. The videos don't add any insights and the math descriptions -particularly when dealing with matrices can be a bit complex-. The topics I already knew were fine, those I didn't, were extremely hard to understand with the materials provided and I had to look for additional resources. The practical examples in R could have been interesting if there was a discussion on how to interpret the results or what are the advantages/disadvantages of each model given the data, but there was nothing like that. The final assignment provides a dataset with around 100 variables with cryptic names and no information about what is they are, which makes it hard to complete the exercise. I would strongly recommend looking for a different course.

Very disappointed with this course. It does not appear that anyone is actively monitoring the comments in the Discussion Forum. In Week 4, the labs do not work and no code or data is provided, contrary to the instructions that are given. I have reported the issues associated with the labs, and have received no response whatsoever. The lack of code or data makes it effectively impossible to complete the peer-reviewed assigment (and therefore the course). This is arguably the worst course that I have enrolled in at Coursera. I will be asking for a refund.

the data file is a mess and no one can finish the last assessment without dictionary. A lot of student has comment that the team should provide a dictionary and everyone is just being ignored.
