@Fiftyseven The bootcamp is about 45-55 hours per week, for 6 months. I'm not sure as to the depth of the content (because I haven't began yet) but there definitely seems to be a lot of work being squeezed into the timeframe

@frogteeth woo for us, I'm about to start bootcamp in September! I've heard about the downsides (too much crammed into too short a timeframe, etc) but coming from an English major background, this seemed like the best option for me.
And ya wanna know what, devRant definitely helped with my decision. Seeing how everyone is so friendly here helped make me less nervous about the huge career shift and now I'm really excited :) it'll be intense but hopefully I can keep up, and I know at least that I'll enjoy the culture.

Hey DevRant!
Not really a rant but a question:
I just got accepted into a coding bootcamp. Have any of you been involved in one? How was it? What would you do to make it a better experience throughout? Any advice or suggestions?
It's full time, six months long and I start in October and I want to make sure I make the most of the experience and absorb as much as possible.
I'm super happy that the course appears to be less just learning JavaScript and more involved in the Computer Science side of things, even including bits about C/C++, distributed systems, algorithms and data structures, software design/testing, cryptography, database management, and computer architecture. It also, of course, covers tons of resume work, interview practice, and networking.
Thanks!
