    Not worth your time: If you already know the content taught, this isn't a good refresher. If you don't, you won't learn anything worthwhile here. Examples given are often poor representations of how to use the concepts in practice. For example in one of the CTE examples the CTE is completely unnecessary. It also talks about using the DATEDIFF function in the date manipulation section but the practice environment is in SQLLite which doesn't have a DATEDIFF function so the solution has to use functions that were never mentioned previously.

    Unfortunately, too fast and not easy to understand. Even if you already know SQL, the exercises go beyond the previous explanation. Example: the teacher shows a list of date formulas and then asks you to perform an exercise where you need to use formulas she never spoke about before. Simple concepts become confusing because you are not seeing them step-by-step.
