Coursera
3.5
(10)
"BD4H - this is probably the most directly relevant course, with pyspark projects."
"SDCC - software engineering side of cloud/infra."
"ML/DL/NLP - very relevant to DEs even if adjacent."
"IIS - worth taking one security course."
"GIOS - solid for programming and good intro to system design."
"GA - to fill spec requirement but also good for DS&A interviews."
"CN - networking side of cloud / devops."
"AOS - similar to GIOS with more focus on distributed systems."
"Databases - only after rehaul."
"Don't do the database course until its rehauled, the current reviews are awful."

Kaplan
4.3
(3)
"Helped me a ton!"
"Kaplan has gotten me through the 7, 63, 9/10 and 66. I’ve failed two of those the first time I took them because I was given other materials to study with (and then I passed using Kaplan). Kaplan will always be my go-to."
"Kaplan had easier/maybe more realistic practice questions."
