Learned lots of new valuation techniques, it was well crafted and smoothly presented by the professors. The tests were also in line with the course and very helpful in understanding the concepts.

I would have given this course 4 or 5 stars but week 3's content, instruction, examples, and quiz problems were sub-par.

Good course but the lack of worked examples, particularly as the course advances reduces its usefulness. I would have spent the time on other courses if I knew there were no worked examples.
