> The fact that if you can learn in 3 months what the average student learns for 5 years, there is a possibility for you go get a signal that really only costs you 3 months of your time, and also proportionally less money, is a fantastic improvement over the traditional way where if you are faster, you just have to spend more time waiting... while still paying huge money for that time.
The author did code professionally for 10 years before getting his CS degree. And he did have an Associates Degree in IT to land those jobs.
- Viliam1234 6y agoYes, the author was not just an ordinary student. I still consider this a fantastic improvement for two reasons: > many opportunities ... out of reach because I didn’t have the required papers > From there, a Bachelor’s degree typically requires an additional 3 years of study. 1) The author had a problem he wanted to fix; the traditional way required 3 years and lots of money; the alternative required only 3 months and less money. 2) If, hypothetically, there is an 18 years old genius who could accomplish this trick right after high school (maybe not in 3 months, but 6 or 12 months -- still faster and cheaper than the traditional way), they can, and this is how.
