I think that level 9 could be improved. Also I would have appreciated a little bit more of applied examples.

Excellent support, excellent work by the TA.
It's great experience for me. The course is well-structured and easily understandable. The forum almost covers everything I need for practice and homework. And the TA is really helpful!
I'm really excited for the last chapter when financial models are introduced.
This course is taught in high quality. The difficulty of the course is moderate and I believe anyone with or without programming experience can obtain what they want from it. TA is very helpful. He answers questions and grades homework very fast and carefully. The forum provide a good platform of studying and communicating.
This course provides systematic C++ theories and technics. Reviewing exercises for different levels, I can certainly see my improvements. TA really helps a lot. They stay patient even when I ask weird questions.
I would recommend this course to anyone that wants a solid foundation in C++. The assignments in particular were very useful in reinforcing the concepts learned.
Very good online C++ courses. I can really learn a lot through doing the homework at each level. TA is very responsible and helpful.
This course is great for those who are new to C++. It introduces the basic knowledge and structure of the C++ language, which is very important in today's world.

My TA is very nice and helpful. Avi always checked my homework very quickly and gave useful remarks.
Comprehensive and in-depth introduction into the C++ realm. Strongly recommend.
Quality of course: The quality is great. I made step-by-step improvement following the videos and materials of the course. The course provided me with practical skills in C++ as well as knowledge of OOP.
TA: TA of this course is really dedicated and his answers to our questions are prompt and greatly helpful.
Support: Aside from the help of TA, video and other materials, I find the forum quite helpful. Threads on the forum are thought-provoking. In addition, the quiz questions are well-designed.
The course is well designed, especially the assignment questions.

The TA is quite responsible and always quickly responds to my questions.
In general, well structured bottom up course that gave a solid intro foundation to OO programming!

TA was fair, and helpful when called upon.
This course is very comprehensive and practical, and my TA Apalley responded to my questions very quickly. I will recommend this course to anyone who would like an introduction to use C++ in quantitative finance.
The course is well-designed and explicitly taught by the professor. Although the courses are online, questions are always answered instantly and patiently by both the professor and TA.
1. i love the design of the class: with class points and arrays all c++ concepts are introduced.
2. TAs always reply questions very fast.
3. In level 9, the practical part, we can really use the c++ knowledge to finance instruments although this chapter is short.
The course is very comprehensive on c++. It covers a lot of topics, some very advanced. The application on financial engineering topics is very helpful too.
Overall the level of the material is hard, but it's good for the students because the covered exercises will be seen in the real world interview a lot. Under such requirement the students need to make their work running right and efficiently. And the TA is also very helpful that he can give the feedback soon.
This course gives me solid foundation in C++ programming. Before I learned this course, I had no experience in coding. But in the later learning process of the elaborately designed 9 levels of C++ programming, I gradually obtained the ability to read and write complex code in C++ style. Moreover, Dr. Daniel Duffy and my assigned TA gave me a lot of help. I really appreciate the quick feedback of my TA and active members in the forum. This is indeed a precious experience for me.

This course is almost perfect.

From my own perspective, I want to know more about the Boost library and Quantlib. I hope Dr. Daniel Duffy can give more lectures about these two powerful tools.
This certification contains all the necessary material for financial engineering. I learnt a lot during the process.
This program provides students with a very solid foundation to become a professional programmer in future. Students are exposed to a range of programming concepts in a theoretical and practical manner which leaves them with the ability to not only grasp C++ concepts, but also easily understand concepts in other programming languages. Once completed, this course gives you the ability to research and build your own personal C++ applications to further enhance your skills. The TA's are very helpful and also respond to questions in a timely and comprehensive manner. All in all I am very glad i committed to this course.
Thank you for a great course. I was looking for an introduction to C++, and the course provided it. I really appreciated the inclusion of template programming, STL, and the Boost library. I now plan to use the course as a foundation to develop skills as a scientific programmer.
