Hey there, my apologies. I can see how that could be confusing, and frustrating. Especially when tackling something new.
While most of our courses are stand-alone, a few students will benefit from taking previous courses, though not always required. In the case of the Fundamentals, if you were interested in, "Which one should I take first?" we have a Playlist to follow here: https://cgcookie.mavenseed.com/playlists/15-playlist-tackle-the-fundamentals-to-become-a-skilled-blender-artist
If you're brand new to Blender, this is a great playlist to start with: https://cgcookie.mavenseed.com/playlists/16-playlist-your-first-week-with-blender-and-cg-cookie
If there is something specific you're interested in learning, please let us know here and we'll see if we can point you in the right direction.

SamuelPrzybysz If you run into anything you have questions about or want more context on, don't hesitate to ask below the lesson! The reason I mention the fundamentals courses is because it's just not feasible to teach every topic from the ground up in every course. Those courses can be seen in order here: https://cgcookie.com/playlists/15-playlist-tackle-the-fundamentals-to-become-a-skilled-blender-artist
In almost all cases what I'm referencing is helpful for fully understanding the concept but is not required to complete the course. That's good feedback to have though, and I'll take it into account for future courses.
Hey CCate, and anyone else feeling the frustrations,
There are two playlists for those beginning their Blender 3D journey.
your-first-week-with-blender-and-cg-cookie
And
the-fundamentals-to-become-a-skilled-blender-artist
these give the perfect introduction into Blender, once complete and successfully absorbed these skills, the next chosen course will be much easier to follow, and hopefully less flip flopping between courses.
Happy Blending!
