Great course! It provided me with a lot of knowledge regarding this topic and I could practice the skills both during the video lessons and while taking the final quiz.

Overall, a great course to take if you're interested to learn about valuation and finance. It's my first time to take a WACC course, and I would recommend beginners like myself to supplement this course with more simplified and less technical materials from Youtube and Investopedia. I liked that this course offered a structure so that aspiring students have a guide as to which topics should be covered first and so on. Thank you Sir Bekhruzbek Ochilov!

The Excel function for Beta needs to be corrected. This video says that the Excel function for beta is =COVAR('BMW Returns'!H:H,'DAX Returns'!H:H)/VAR('BMW Returns'!H:H); but the correct one is (=COVARIANCE.P(equity price array, index price array/VAR.P(index price array). see How Do You Calculate Beta in Excel?

If you want to start into valuation and have a small idea of how to get WACC this is the course, short and simple, but it assumes many things that are not right when doing real valuation.

You can easily learn, but there are times that the Professor is too fast that I need to pause, or there are times that the Professor suddenly stops. It's still good though.

it felt a bit fast, and wouldve probably like to understand how to use each of the calculations we did during the course, but i can always google this.

The explanation on CAPM (first video of the course) was a bit confusing. Overall, the course was really nice, hands-on and well-structured.

Quality content, allows for sound understanding of the concepts. The only issue is sometimes the audio is not very clear.
