Some of the materials are redundant, old, and/or poorly written.

I recommend avoiding this specialization and any others where passing them hinges on peer review assignments. You could waste a tremendous amount of time resubmitting assignments and trying to get approval from uninformed and unreasonable peers. Spend your time instead on a course that is 100% learning. Coursera should eliminate peer reviews or at least tell you up front that they are a part of the course.
