    I had a electronic course and a electrical course before and I passed it before but I want to do a electronics to brush up on my skills from using the equipment to find faults and repairing faults as well

    Pretty good course. Really helped me in my university degree. Questions are well prepared and concepts are explained clearly. After taking Linear DC Analysis, which is a disgrace to Georgia Tech since it is one of the worst MOOCs I have seen, this course was sure welcome. I suggest anyone struggling to understand electronic concepts or maybe just expanding their horizon on electronics.
