This is the rating for the whole specialization.

1) Some course are nice and well done, but probably only 2-3 of the 9 (The entrepreneur one is really well done). But most of them are simply useless.

2) It's too long. For the same amount of knowledge, I could have done just 3 WELL DONE courses.

3) Most of courses are just things people read in front of a screen, without any passion or interest. And the concept are so easy I am wandering if they need to be teached at all.

4) The exam are just sloppy. Even a monkey that didn't watch the video could answer them (sometimes I try to do the same and it works. If I already know what you will ask me, which kind of knowledge are you supposed to teach me?),

5) About this project, the instructions are messed up.

In the end, I finish it because it was my first specialization, and I was lucky enough to do the interesting one at the beginning, so I feel compelled to end it, but really, I am not sure It was worth my time.

Nobody is reviewing my work.

I think Coursera need to do something about the peer review system

The final course of the 'Career Success Specialization'. You will have only lectures and a final project with a SWOT analysis, report & presentation. Nice way to end :)

The project is a great way to apply all the knowledge, however, waiting to and being graded by peers isn't always ideal. But I understand it is necessary.

Some of the course content was very good. Most of the content was not as good, and the majority of the quizzes were poorly written. 1/10 would recommend this specialization to others.

Dave Nagy and David Standen were the highlight instructors for this course.

Since other perspective, certainly it has been a course that have demanded and made me a better Critical-Thinker, I feel more confident and proactive to work with myself, and with others. I feel more assertive and responsible. Besides, de "detail-oriented" had not been as serious as I have taken with this months of course. Finally, I have to say thank you and just added that I feel I had used more time than I did.

Sincerely,
