The course is quite costly. The teaching quality is pretty good but you have to rely on yourself to study. I don't have a personal tutor so I can't rate that. The course content is overall balance in terms of difficulty and the amount of time you have to work on it. Mechanical engineering opens to a lot of jobs prospects hence the four stars with factors like where you want to work. read more
