Rant: Wasted $80 on a "Python for Data Science" Udemy course that was just basic syntax

I thought I was getting actual data science stuff like pandas and numpy, but they just spent 6 hours on loops and if statements I already knew. Has anyone else gotten tricked by misleading course descriptions?

Man, that's frustrating. Hate when they stretch the title like that.

@dixon.amy did you check the reviews before buying that course?

Wait, isn't it kind of normal for a beginner course to cover the basics before getting into pandas though? That $80 might have been worth it if you just skipped ahead to the later modules.
