Very useful for anyone interested in basic concepts of statistics and statistical inference. It prepares one to enrol for more advanced courses like Machine Learning.

Gives a great overview of every important topic in statistics. However, lots of things aren't explained thoroughly. I had to use other websites to gain a sufficient understanding of lots of material.
