I felt the course was missing it's cues many times. It fails to deliver on the LET'S LEARN HOW TO THINK IN EXCEL aspect and concentrates on irrelevant topics like, what's the shortcut for something. That is irrelevant. The shortcut is different in MacOS, WIN or certain options are completely unavailable if working with the cloud version of Excel.
What's most important is understanding WHY you choose a certain formula, WHY you keep a row, a column, what is a PIVOT table, how to use it, why, in what aspects does it give you the tool you need, not where to change the color of a table and ask in an exam if the backgrund is better lighter or darker.
The audio level is inconsistent, some chapters are better paced, with proper sound levels, and on some chapters the first sounds you hear are uncalibrated high pitch too fast vocals. It disrupts the atmosphere, the mood and the involvement.
Many examples of files provided, but too little practical applications. People learn by doing.
