The course itself was good, but as mentioned in the other comment the test was riddled with issues. There were answers shown twice and in one case the question was included as an answer.

Great course, as always from Danny S.! Danny can explain the most complex matters in amazingly simple terms. That\'s a gift!

PS - I am not a you-know-whater, but I respectfully disagree with the other gentleman re the comment. It was funny! And frankly can be read either way...
