It was a great pleasure taking the test, i had fun and learnt a lot.
Great Course
good
I like how the course is broken up into several mini sections. It makes it much easier to focus and learn.
It felt disjointed at times. and some videos still need captioning. maybe make it so captions stay on between videos?
Intense but informative.
