  1. Thanks for sharing the detailed information about the course. I was very interested. I hope to repeat the course very soon. I like learning even though it can be difficult sometimes. Recently https://residencypersonalstatements.net/testimonials/ helped me a lot. And I am glad that there are more resources like this for students.
