All content was related and helpful, the only issue I see is the final assessment, peer graded. It looks like some students who want to get feedback on others', do not read the answers at all !

This course offers a deep insight on the details of how to do the job of a data analyst. While it is an overview of the whole process, there is a lot of information to unpack. Highly recommend.

Pretty good course. In my opinion the reading material was a bit brief and did not really cover the quiz questions. Other than that though it was pretty clear and relatively easy to understand.
