      Meh. I'm glad I went but I felt like 80% of what we went through I'd already taught myself. However, having it on my resume has been beneficial 60% of the time.

      Nice! I was accepted a couple of days ago, but I feel I haven't explored all my options yet so I'm scrambling for information, watching all these videos and applying to every bootcamp. It's a commitment and I'm really worried about making the right choice.

You will end up with a huge amount of debt and no job. I regret the day I signed up for this bootcamp. I've read many bad reviews about them but it was too late for me.

    Do you plan on doing an updated video for GA like you did for Hack Reactor? It seems the prices have gone up 1,000's of dollars and the quality of many camps has gone down. I feel like the increased cost isn't justifiable if the course is completely online over a zoom call. Are they still worth it in this current environment?

    GA doesn’t seem to have as rigorous of an interview/application process anymore. I did the Dash prework and then had a short talk with the “interviewer” and I kinda got the feeling he didn’t even look at my pages.

      I’m guessing that it all depend’s what job you can actually get after you’re done. I have friend’s who have degree’s in SE and one of my friend’s works from home and he makes about $50k clean take home a year. My other buddy work’s for a SE development firm and he makes well over $150k clean take home a year.

      Looking at their website, it looks like the coding immersive might be between $13,000 and $14,000. The prices can fluctuate, but I'd look at their website for more details.

    Too long of a video. Honest opinions/reactions are great ( the psychology behind this video is perfect whether intentional or not ) but with out real content it gets boring quick. Hasn't persuade me away from wanting to join the academy; just giving my input on the video itself, definitely helped my decision to join.
