This was a great experience in learning Excel. The intro course walks you through the basics but by the time you finish the advanced class you'll see the true power of Excel.

Evidently this course is now unsupported. There are versioning and integration problems with the assessment spreadsheets which must be downloaded and filled on the local machine. For prior courses in this specialization, I had no problem, but for the advanced course, it was impossible to complete the course assessments because of these problems. As a result, I was only able to complete the Intermediate I and II courses, which makes me look bad when I post that on LinkedIn. The question from recruiters will be, because this is such a well known certificate, why didn't she complete the advanced course if she is now a business analyst???

I would rate the course very highly if there was versioning support, but because there isn't, the specialization isn't worth spending the time on, because it's impossible to post it on LinkedIn without reputational damage. This is so disappointing, here I thought MacQuarie University was one of my go-to sources for high quality courses!

There is some alright information in this course's videos, but it's a pretty obvious attempt to get people to sign up for the free trial, take longer than 7 days, and then have to purchase the class. Many quiz questions were not taught on which can make it take a long time to finish this class, or for many students I saw on the forums who dropped out, forever. For that reason, I can't give it anything higher than a one star due to the creators preying on people trying to learn.

This course is totally a miss and waste of time Honestly the first 3 were amazing courses and you feel that your learning something this course is designed to curse yourself for starting this specialization I won't advise anyone to take this course individually
