    Sometimes well explained sometimes completely broken notebooks and links. 90% of the notebooks weren't running because I couldn't load the initial input data correctly.

    This is the worst course out of the entire DP-100 specialization. The entire week 6 exercises could not completed without extensive debugging efforts because the notebooks are outdated. The discussion forum is also not informative in that respect, as errors reported by other learners did not receive any response. Finally, it would be helpful if the staff could properly format the codes as displayed in the quizzes and tests. At present, codes are displayed in individual lines that makes comparison among the options challenging.

    Very bad course, the notebooks have a lot of bugs due to versions and there is no support for any doubt.

    VERY VERY BAD COURSE, NOT RECOMMENDED.

    90% of the course content and material were great. I definitely have a solid understanding of Apache Spark and how to use it. However, PLEASE update the databricks notebooks! Many of them contain errors or code that throws errors.

    Looks like the course is outdated and the 1st excercise doesn't work with error " shaded.databricks.org.apache.hadoop.fs.azure.AzureException: java.util.NoSuchElementException: An error occurred while enumerating the result " . The instruction to setup the cluster in the course is also outdated and doesn't coincide with Azure UI to setup cluster. Microsoft need to step up its game in Coursera offering. Very disappointed.

    typos abound; a lot of admin-level coursework that a data scientist would only minimally use
