It could be better if there were exams and homework. sometimes the subject is passed very quickly.

By kritika goyal on 8/23/2020

very confusing, lots of things are left unexplained. The instructor just keeps on doing things without explaining the reason for doing that.

By Sudiksha Agrawal on 8/12/2020
