it is an excellent course!
It’s a great course and the work is intense. Very good start for programming.
I like this course for its comprehensive topics and well-designed homework. However, I think it might be better if it could be more compatible with different laptops especially for the code given in level 9.
The topics and materials covered are very well-organized and helpful. My TA APalley is very patient. APalley always provide detailed feedbacks on my homework. The forum also played a very helpful role since Dr. Duffey and TAs reply quickly. It's greatly beyond what I expected from an online course.
Course was very good, covered some great concepts that I will take into the office with me.
This is the best investment anyone can make for learning C++. The curriculum will expose you to all the core concepts of C++ and even some basic design principles. The "Applications in Finance" is especially refreshing as it gives you a sneak peek into the world of computational finance and the relevance of C++ in the field.
The course is very well structured. I’ve had experience in python programming, but this course offered me so much more knowledge, especially OOP. I have enjoyed this course very much
the course is hard but as future mfe student, we should understand that.Yes this meets my original goal
i would say this is a great journey and it actually provides me more career options. it helps me to build solid c++ skills and basic computational finance knowledges and those are just my expectations for this course.
Overall, it's an excellent course. Not only Dr.Duffy's instruction is clear and thorough, but also our tutors are patient and skillful. I felt very satisfied with the course contents which is essential for our skill development and career path.
The quality of the course was great as I was able to learn about the basic of C++ in just 10 weeks.
It did give me a solid background in c++ and it was interesting in the end to use it for some financial applications. I think the final exam which is really just debugging intensive is too heavily weighted. It doesn't reflect programming ability and it stopped me from getting an A.
It's the great one in all my CS courses, I learnt a lot of what I want from it, I think level9 is the best one.
The course is well organized, and I benefit a lot from this course.
I really enjoyed the quality of the exercises, feedback, and grading
Sincerely speaking, I start working with the course with no C++ background. During this challenging process, TA's assistance and threads posted on the forum truly help me out. This course builds a solid foundation for my future C++ program learning.
This course is more than an university course. It is much more in-depth and practical. Alternatively saying, this is really rigorous course, and I personally invested a huge amount of time to learn and implement concepts and codes. Feedbacks from TA were also extremely quick and helpful. I have never seen this kind of online lecture, this course is so detail-oriented , at the same time it dealt with a vast range of Programming concepts.

I believe that if a student puts a fair amount of time and effort, he/she can learn more than his initial expectation. (if..! is important here)
This is a great course teaching me lots of useful skills of C++ including the data structure and algorithm. Since I'm lack basic knowledge of option pricing, Level9 could be hard for me to learn , and I think it would be better if there's a workshop or additional lesson to help me better comprehend the knowledge of option pricing.
I like this course because it is well-structured. It covers essential C++ topics with applications to finance which are really useful and rich in content for a MFE applicant like me! The materials are detailed and accurate, with professor's clear explanation. My TA (Avi) is very responsive, providing feedback usually within a half a day. Big thanks to QuantNet for providing this course.
I really like the provided documents that provide extra details besides the lecture and the instant responses (within one day) of TAs when I have questions. It meets my original goal for taking this course - improving my knowledge about C++. Previously, I had some knowledge about different programming languages, but this course gives me a lot of details about things that I did not see before and extends things that I previously saw.
