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.

Good information given, however Qwiklabs often didn't work properly and left me unable to fully practice what I was learning.

The method of the course is good but it seems that there are many old materials that not used today. It has to be revisited.

Not bad but challenging. I wish there was some intern-like activity involved to help me understand the concepts better.

I wish they would have labs for trying out some of the server side programs, such as AD, open LDAP, and etc...

Would like to more labs and less explaining. Or maybe more labs, with explanation as you go along.

The large number of supplemental readings left it unclear what was important for the assessments.

This one was a bit harder to replicate on my machine which made learning a little more difficult.

Some of the labs just don't work correctly. Very annoying and a waste of my time. Disappointing.

The Active Directory sections needs to be more interactive, it's a lot of information to dump.

Let down by the constant issues with the Qwiklabs environment. Aside from that issue, good.

Glad to get through it, and I still feel IT illiterate, though. I'm still quite unsure.

Good course however peer graded review needs more options than a perfect score to pass

Too many videos and not enough hands on practice- Especially for Active Directory.
