This course was really good. Very interesting and it makes you think. I did not give 5* only because the tutors could have come up with a better presentation, perhaps some animation or better visual explanation. However, overall a well deserved 4*. Well done.

By Christopher Peterson on 9/13/2023

Provided the necessary background and in some cases derivations for various statistical calculations, and then showed how Excel can be used to calculate these values simply. Very insightful, and pace was good as well.
