One of the most practical courses I have taken in Coursera. Highly recommended for professionals in Business, Strategy, and Finance & Accounting departments, as well as stock market investors.

Ok, course. I don't think it was as well prepared and thought through as the other courses.

For a beginner, the verbiage is very confusing and hard to understand.

Week 1 to 3 is really good. Week 4 is a waste of time.

"Dogs cannot play traditional video games due to their lack of opposable thumbs." Is this really content from The Wharton School? I actually had to stop a video in the middle to take a moment and come review this course. While the content is "okay," the presentation is quite terrible. I mean no offense, but the professor needs to step away from GoAnimate and streamline his slides for better consumption. The inclusion of a video clip from a young child (the professor's daughter?) took the cake. I am embarrassed to watch these in any public place where anyone might see my screen. All of this contributes to a somewhat convoluted presentation of the material that I find particularly frustrating and difficult to follow. I suspect I would do better simply reviewing the slides (versus watching the videos).

While I enjoyed this course and the topics covered, I don't feel like the course content matched what the course description stated it was supposed to. I enrolled in the Business Analytics Specialization course with a focus on analyzing a business from the inside, not outside. Of the 4 weeks of the course, I'd say that only week 4 was valid from an internal perspective but it was kept very high level. I'd say this course could be good for a specialization in business market analysis, but not as advertised.
I also found the cartoon classroom questions to be very annoying, almost as bad as fingernails on a blackboard.

The course was way too specific on the analytics of forensic accounting. Since the field is already quite esoteric, solid prior knowledge of financial accounting is necessary to be able to make sense of the discussions. While the contents remained insightful, I think students could have benefited more if the accounting analytics course was approached from a more general angle, rather than being too specific on fraud detection techniques and on the more specialized financial accounting applications.

Over all not too bad but if your not a finance person (and I mean working in the world of stocks, takeovers, financial regulation) the concepts were a challenge. Some of the quizes are baffling. I would have been good to see a more practical level of financial analytics from an inside the organisation point of view that was congruent with the marketing, operations and people analytics courses.

It was the worst course ever, with too many theories and fewer practices. Rambling talking. I would rather study this on youtube which is faster, easier to understand, more practical, and FREE.

It was utter difficult for a non financial background students to understand the key concepts.It could have been more simple and intelligible.

weeks 1,2 and 3 were not satisfactory according to me. the video lectures were difficult to comprehend. week 4 was very good.

Too technical in case you are directly involver to accounting. Only week 3 & 4 are somehow related to analytics at all

This course content felt like too much happening all at once at an extremely fast pace. Not a satisfactory experience.

The Quiz doesnt have feedback to wrong answers... Recommend to combine each week's slides in to one pdf file. Thanks

Course was not easy to grasp, lost interest after the first week and I barely got through the quiz at the end.
