I already have bachlors in Mathematics, however need a quick refresher of basic mathematics, and really love the content of the course.
Reviewed on Jun 6, 2022
Some errors in typing as well as not able to input radicals, exponents, or square roots as answers. Otherwise it covers the topics well and is easy to work through and use.
