What's bad about this school: Almost entirely web frameworks, the algorithms slides are way too brief, heavily relies on Hackerank type resources, not to mention possible mistakes in the slides, like describing 'THE upper bound' when you can find another upper bound. No math so gradschool is going to be difficult. Entirely imperative/OOP. Edit: You will owe them $100k https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18548001 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18548001 and it's not clear on their site if there's a maximum level of gross income deduction
Still can't beat that 2 years to official Bachelor's piece of paper for no up front costs
- DesaiAshu 7y agoWe're starting to build out more math and deeper on algorithms, particularly for people who want to go the AI/ML route or grad school. Currently if you're keen on grad school it's probably better to go to a well ranked research university. On average you'll pay $100k, but it's a sliding scale based on your income so we ensure it's affordable / there is downside protection. Given that you have 2 more years of earning than a traditional university you'll usually come out well ahead.
