Intro to Machine Learning on Coursera was pretty great, just the right level of difficulty for a novice high schooler.

I'm a high schooler. My knowledge is mainly in the front-end realm, with the vast majority of 'programming' I do being in JavaScript. Do you think I would be able to take it successfully?

Im a beginner um programming, and did machine learning course right after a introdutory course (CS50 and 6.00x at Edx).

I've been able to do the whole course, but only because i have good math skills. My impression is that math skills (calculus and linear algebra) are much more needed than coding skills in this course.

Im currently taking calculus, but im not sure if I have already dealt with linear algebra before. Is it its own subject, or does Algebra and Algebra II cover the content?
