Although introductory, I do carry out reviews as a researcher. I Learned a lot to improve my systematic reviews through this course. High quality, though the music could be a little less intense.

I think more engagement would have improved the course- perhaps only with those that paid for the certificate would add value to the cost.

Overall a good course. However, certain modules where quite difficult to follow and needed more breaking down of complicated processes.

The rating should be around 3.5 stars. You should give more importance on how to do systemic review and meta-analysis itself.

Thank you.

Concepts were often repeated many times and quiz questions were often too specific based on the general concepts covered in lectures.

A bit outdated but pretty useful for the basics, make sure to look for the updated version of the bibliography the course recommends.

Sometimes there are typos in the text. I think the Pubmed slides need to be updated to what it looks like today.

It extensively covered points around SR and MA. Though I was hoping for more contents around numerical analysis.

Another module about working with RevMan or running meta-analysis in STATA would further enhance the course.
