Not worth it

I recently invested in what I expected to be a comprehensive learning experience, but unfortunately, it fell far short of my expectations. The course, spanning only 10 days, attempted to cover an overwhelming amount of material, leaving little room for meaningful interaction or comprehension. During the virtual sessions conducted over Zoom, participants, including myself, were muted, hindering any chance for real-time questions or clarifications. This lack of engagement made it nearly impossible to keep up with the fast-paced curriculum. Moreover, there was a glaring absence of preparation guidance provided prior to the course commencement. The expectation to have a 400-page textbook printed out without prior notice was unreasonable, especially considering the hefty price tag associated with the course. My frustration peaked during the first session when I found myself 40 minutes late due to technical difficulties, only to be plunged into unfamiliar territory without adequate preparation. The pace was relentless, and I struggled to grasp the concepts, leading to a disheartening experience. As the course progressed, the challenges persisted. On the second day, we delved into math problems without access to essential formulas, which were supposedly buried within the extensive textbook. Attempting to navigate through hundreds of pages in search of a single formula while the instructor raced through questions was both frustrating and counterproductive. In hindsight, it's clear that the program lacked essential support structures, such as providing a concise math formula sheet beforehand to aid comprehension during class discussions. A simple reference guide could have significantly alleviated the pressure and enabled participants to engage more effectively with the material. While I had hoped for a rewarding educational journey, the reality was far from it. The course's lack of organization, inadequate preparation, and insufficient support left me feeling disillusioned and ultimately dissatisfied with the experience.
