I am currently pursuing the Factor Investing course. While working on the capstone projects, I noticed that solutions are not provided for reference. Typically, having access to the solutions helps validate our approach and understand alternative methods to solve the problem.
Could you please confirm if the solutions are available or if there is a way to verify our work? This would be highly beneficial in ensuring we are on the right track.
Looking forward to your quick and timley response on this one.
Best regards,
Akshay
Hi,
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your feedback! We completely understand your point, and we appreciate your diligence in validating your approach. We have intentionally not provided solutions, as we encourage students to work through the project independently to enhance their problem-solving skills. However, if you encounter any challenges along the way, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’d be happy to guide you through any difficulties.
That said, if you feel a reference would still be helpful, we can provide a template to give you a structured starting point. Please note that this might take some time, as we do not have it readily available.
Let us know how you’d like to proceed, and we’ll be happy to assist you!
I appreciate your explanation about encouraging independent work. However, having a reference solution wouldn’t diminish my learning experience but rather enhance it by allowing me to compare my approach with a standard example. Many educational programs provide solution guides after students have completed their work. If you do have a template or reference solution that could be made available, I’d be willing to wait for it to be prepared. but if you cannot provide a reference solution to the capstone project set by you guys then it would be a bit disappointing experience.
Hi,
We are currently working on creating sample solutions for the capstone projects. It will take a couple of weeks to make them available. We will let you know once the solutions are updated in the course.
Hello akshay, the solutions for both the capstone projects were added to the course. You can find these solutions here and here. Thank you
