Auditing Ive audited several edX courses. I like to complete and submit work and know how I progressed, but I don't want a Verified Certificate. The last course I attempted - got half way through then - bammo - couldn't submit work for assessment unless I paid for a Verified Certificate. Come on edX. Tell us at the start of the course if auditing is going to be assessed or not. The course is most interesting (no complaints) and Im going to do the assignments, but I do like feedback.

Avoid!!!! Teacher was impatient with students and unprepared to start the course. He didn't have a formal coding education and he quit two months into the course. They do not provide a textbook version of the curriculum. They refer you to other people's work. I'm in the process of getting a diagnosis for auditory processing disorder and I was begging them for months for help and they refused. Repeatedly. I then suffered stress related syncope and ended up in the hospital. They removed me from the course but want me to still pay them $8,000

The EdX courses are good but unfair The EdX courses are good, but need flexibility, so that the one who has done more than 50% of assignments ,as audit, could be able to pay and to be able to finish the course. Not to cut him off in the middle of the course. Education should be a priority here, not- business and money! You stress and depress people. They lose their time, and become unhappy. Bad decisions of the EdX management team.

Thanks again Thanks again, was a pleasure ! The only thing that was really annoying was the material and there exercises in the machine learning that were broken all the times so you needed to keep guessing and hoping that it will work out in the end. So Please dear course providers in the future stay tuned to your published material and keeping up to date and get us hanging in there ... Thanks a lot !

Bad learning experience I was doing an LLM course the labs stopped working for me might course and edX support said that's a problem with the staff delivering the course. The staff delivering the course responded with a scripted message the forum thread I started and then went dark.
