I would be very curious to see numbers for udacity competitors.
I know I gave up every time I tried to do something on udacity while I completed most of the classes I took on coursera, and all the original stanford ones.
I blame this on the interaction between class style and myself being terrible at self management without deadlines.
I mean, I took the original Thrun AI class with a coursera-like model and I did it fine, while I don't know if I got to the 3rd lecture of Thrun's Stats 101.
