This course started off well, with some good custom functions in Power query, but all the exercises felt very underwhelming, I didn't need any help or referring to instructor's solution for a single one, and they all were solved by just using the GUI.

Personally, I have found this course pretty helpful, especially the last part of this course focused on particular common scenarios. But as it was said by the tutor at the beginning, this is not intended to be a comprehensive PQ or M-language course. Still recommend to buy mainly for beginners.

Informative. Nice to see coding in editor; however some steps can be achieved with "buttons" in query editor. For example the Expanding records can be accomplished by clicking on icon in header.
