I centralized the Assimil course ranking survey at this link.
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/6638WW9
Assimil course Rankings
Check it out and see what you think. I am new to surveymonkey so this will be a work in progress.
Feedback MORE than welcomed!

I thought Wolof & Zulu were phrasebooks?
Did Assimil use to publish courses for those languages in French?

How soon can we rate our experience with Assimil? Do we need to have finished at least have, completed the passive wave, finished the course entirely? I think I could give a fairly accurate rating for Dutch, Swedish, Persian, Romanian, and Japanese, but the only one which I have gotten to the end of so far is the Dutch course.
EDIT: I just went ahead and reviewed the ones I mentioned above. I hope that's okay.

Honestly, I just got the specific languages from their website. Many of them are the "de poche" variety. I can go
back and remove those if people only wish to have their full courses on there.

No, I don't think you need to complete the course. You should have done enough of it to have a sense of its
quality and how it compares to other Assimil courses however. Hope this helps!
