What kind of time commitment does it require?
- lambada 15y agoFor me it took 3 or 4 hours a week per course. It doesn't sound like much, but pre-arranged plans made it hard to find a decent sized piece of time (>1 hr) in which to do the work.
- frobozz 15y agoThanks. This is the critical nugget of information missing from the course information pages (unless I'm just lacking in observation skills).
- egor83 15y agoFor me it was maybe 5-6 hours per week (for AI course). It was quite intensive thinking, though, really requiring concentration and effort; the courses themselves (ie just video) were maybe about 1 hour per unit, and there were two units per week.
- larrykubin 15y agoI started out spending closer to 10 hours a week earlier on in the AI course. We initially had a local meetup and I spent more time reading the textbook for the first few units. Had to scale it back to 5 or so hours, which is good enough to get through it, but not enough to spend extra time discussing with others, reading supplementary materials, and coding.

- thmcmahon 15y agoI think I've spent about 5 hours per week on the db class. I'm not getting full marks by any means, but I'm learning a lot.
- adestefan 15y agoI've put about 2-4 hours a week into the ML class. However, I know that math (basic linear algebra and calculus so far) and have done scientific computing before so I can churn the exercises out pretty quick. The exercises are the best part. It's nice having a set of problems to work on instead of just watching an hours worth of videos each week.
