I enjoyed the learning and the content of the course thoroughly. My intention for joining the course was to understand Stochastic Finance and programming at the same time.

Thank you for providing this amazing course. I had no experience in C++ at all, but now I can read and write in C++, albeit rudimentary yet. What I liked the most about the course is that there are well-designed exercises for each level. I learned a lot doing exercises on my own, and even enjoyed them. Feedbacks of Avi(APalley) were brilliant. The comments were precise, professional, and meticulous. Forums were also very helpful and encouraging. The grading policy is well-designed that it provokes desire to get discreet certificate and extra points.

The course is certainly intense for someone with zero programming experience. The experience is overall pleasant. While I have procrastinated a lot during the process, the forums and TAs are really helpful.

I was admitted to a MFE program when I decided to buy this course. I saw this course on Quantnet website and want to improve my programming skills by this course.

I decided to take this course since I am going to apply for an MFE program. I got to know the course when browsing the Baruch MFE official site. I found the course very friendly to a beginner on C++, and equipped me with the essential understanding and practice on C++. The TAs and forum are very helpful in answering various questions on HW and other questions.

I enrolled in the course for two reasons:
1. Become a programmer: I had some coding experience with Python and VBA. However, I wanted to become a better programmer and not merely a coder. This course has certainly helped me become a better programmer. Not only can I write efficiently designed programs but also I have become comfortable at understanding and debugging code. The course definitely introduces best coding practice. Last but not the least, I had heard great things about the TA support and I have had the pleasure to experience it myself. Along with being prompt at answering questions on the forum, my TA (Avi Palley) provided detailed feedback on the homework and guided me all the way to implement best programming practices.

2. Meet the programming requirements for MFE programs: I believe that this course is designed to prepare the students to handle grad school level programming.

My mentor recommended this course to me saying that it would be beneficial to take since I want to become a quant in the future. It's great that it's a 16-week online course and I can study in my own pace and ask questions on the forum. The tutors and the professor are patient to answer my questions and they helped me solve my problems with guiding questions, instead of just giving out the answers. When I submitted my homework, I always received detailed feedback which is useful for my next step. I'm glad that I finish this course and enhance my C++/C programming skills, and had some experience with the Boost library, and tried some financial applications in Level 9.

I heard this course from a fellow student, who has taken Baruch MFE program and working in NY now. I take this course to learn how to use C++. My university doesn't provide a C++ course for me.

My experience with the course is overall positive. I believe the curriculum and assignments are rigorous enough to ensure a good grasp of C++ and to encourage students to look beyond the lecture notes to understand various C++ concepts in depth. Daniel, Avi and WZhang have been very responsive to questions on the forum and our assignment submissions.

I loved the course, and the lectures were very informative. I learned a lot about the fundamentals of c++.

The reason I took the course was to develop a robust groundwork in c++ where I can grow and develop as a programmer. I wish to apply for financial engineering graduate programs, and felt this course could prepare me for that.
