What people are saying

final assignment

The designers of this course designed a final assignment that is way beyond the curriculum leading up to it, and judging from the discussion forums it gives everyone severe headaches to deal with it.

The final assignment does not test you on how much you learned in the course, rather it tests you on how much time you spend on your own finding other relevant sources of information on the internet to figure it out.

Nice Some useful stuff, but you could be waiting weeks if not months to have your final assignment graded.
