I really appreciate the time these guys invested in this course and am willing to take it again if they re-explain some topics in order to refresh some things that with time haven't stayed in my mind.

Great, thank you for this awsome MOOC with lots of useful tips! I recall that after a good night's sleep I'd better focus soon and start deliberately practicing or the metabolic vampires will come out. And repeat - fear the vampires.

This should be a mandatory course for first-year high school students and then a refresher in college or university. I believe it would have made a major difference in my education, career, and life if I had this course 30 years ago.
