This is a good course, I like the format with short videos and written summaries that reiterate the same concepts and a bit more, it helps the learning sink in. Didn't give it 5 stars because there weren't quite enough practical exercises (just 2 throughout the 6 weeks).

I really liked the course, I would just say that this is for complete and absolute beginners who haven't had any interactions with statistics and that it wont leave you with a lot of practical knowledge, more of a broad idea of what statistics could do for you.

For an "introductory" course on Probability and Statistics, this one's really good. It would have been better should this course contain at least one practical application per module so that at least the students can have a hands-on experience with Statistics.

I thought the course was comprehensive and I thoroughly appreciated Dr Abney's eloquence. However, not simplistic enough for a student doing probability and statistics for the first time or for a student who is not mathematically savvy.

A pretty solid introductory course. The readings covered everything that the lectures covered, and sometimes more. One could get through the entire course by only doing the readings, and not bothering to watch the lectures.

Lecturer discussed the materials well. Related abstract concepts to real world situations. However, there are some concepts I still cannot grasp well.One has to diligently learn the concepts or you'll get lost sometimes.

Gained some good insights into probability and statistics. This can be a good starting point for people intending to brush up on this topic with the intention for future practical use. eg: predict stock price movements.

It was a really nice course, very useful and recomended to people who wants to remember some statics concepts. Perhaps it it would be better, if the course has more practice and no so much theory. But this was great!

Although the linear programming, and simulation sections were interesting, I would have rather delved a little more deeply into statistics. Perhaps a little more on regression analysis or analysis of variance.

I confess that what got me into this course was the smart name.

I ended up liking the teacher and his way of teaching. He does a good and brief introduction to the topic in a simple and fun way

Very good course to understand the basics. It is better if a few more examples are added for solving by participants to have a clearer understanding of the concept.

The course was good, but there was a lack of examples taught. It was mostly a theoretical course as compared to other courses on Coursera teaching the same subject.

Very good explanations. Perfect for beginners in statistics. Also good if you want to refresh knowledge but not very sophisticated if you are not a beginner.

This course has really opened my eyes to the usefulness of probability methods in real-life situations and the methods of calculating the various scenarios.

A very good course for entry-level in probability and statistics. More pictures and audiovisual content will probably improve the course dramatically.

The course is explained in a very simple and easy manner. Really nice material which has very good examples and makes it easier to understand.

Good introduction to probability and statistics, but it lacks exercises. Maybe I am being too hard on them as this course is for beginners!

It was a very well explained intro course made quite interesting by the presenter.

I wish it had more assignments with real-life examples.

Good learning material for a beginner. Not for someone looking at an intermediate or advanced level course. Videos are crisp and clear.

The concept is well presented with the assumption that further research and dedication needed is required to get to next level.

Leaps from what I consider easy to understand content to jargon quickly but overall killed time during quarantine.

More of a theoretical course. Should be more quantitative course. But I give my full marks to the presenter.

Definitely you will know what is p or not p at the end of the course. Stay tuned Statistician

It's a great and informative course, but it's not for people who don't like statistics.

Good introductory sessions on ll the broader aspects of probability and statistics.
