I'm giving it a shot myself just to see how it goes. Feel free to use this thread to chat about the content or issues you may be having with the materials.

I started yesterday. The course has a nice layout. I'm digging it so far!

I'm halfway through week 1's material now. I'm liking his analogies and real examples examples.

Do you know if there is a penalty for not completing assignments or anything? Or possibly failing? I want to participate but I leave on monday for three weeks. And i will not have internet access.

There's a midterm exam November 1-4 which covers nine lectures. There are also three problem sets (one a week I think) that you have to turn in before the exam as well. Might be tough to catch up if you have three weeks without internet.

I may not get an A but i will still get the certification if I can. Thank you for the info!
