What do people think of the Master's being offered by the University of Colorado on Coursera:

No Bachelor's or even HS required, and even here in Australia, with our terrible exchange rate, it looks reasonably priced.

It could save a fortune for the motivated student. Something like Math Academy could be used for preparation:

Some reviews have noted that it's a good value, especially for individuals who require flexibility and scheduling.

Students have mixed feelings about it, citing that the material seems too easy or superficial and relies too heavily on formulas instead of delving deeper into the theory.

One person's view of a similar CU data science program on coursera:

 
I’ve been looking through the curricula of several European theoretical/mathematical physics MSc programs (ETH, Oxford, Cambridge, LMU, ENS Paris, etc), and I’m struck by how little emphasis they place on advanced fundamental courses. Nearly everything seems to be research-adjacent: string theory, quantum field theory, quantum optics, cosmology, soft matter physics, black hole radiation, etc. What I don’t see are the kinds of “second-pass fundamentals” I was hoping for, things like...
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
