Ask HN: Is it worth taking this MITx course?

I have been working on Big Data analytics for the past 2 years. I would like to know if HN has any feedback and or comments on MITx's course "Tackling the Challenges of Big Data". The cost of the course is $540.

Link for the course page with course outline and more details here: https://mitprofessionalx.mit.edu/courses/course-v1:MITProfessionalX+6.BDx+4T2015/about

Considering that the course costs good amount of bucks [I am not from US; and as such taking this course would hit me a bit hard], I would like to know if anyone here on HN have taken this course and if yes, would you suggest others to take this?

Thanks!

Please note that this is not change of jobs or anything, but for improving my knowledge and getting a better perspective of Big Data from the leaders and pioneers in the area.
