In this video I'll answer the following 9 questions: 1) Do attribute what I learned at Galvanize to working at Amazon? 2) Am I using my bootcamp knowledge in my current role? 3) Is bootcamp worth it? 4) What are the REAL salary ranges for grads? 5) What types of people attend bootcamps? 6) How to gauge if you will like coding? 7) What is the cost and time commitment? 8) What do you learn? 9) What's the difference between free courses and bootcamps? --Some useful links-- **LSAT Logic questions http://www.thelsattrainer.com/sample-lsat-logic-games.html https://www.manhattanprep.com/lsat/resources/logic-game-example.cfm **bootcamp loans (this is a great link that contains many of the top loan companies) https://studentloanhero.com/featured/student-loans-for-coding-bootcamp/ **Bootcamps http://www.galvanize.com/ (This is the dev school I went to) This is a list of some of the top dev bootcamps across the country https://www.switchup.org/research/best-coding-bootcamps what you will learn in the Galvanize Program (scroll to the bottom of the link below to see the course curriculum) https://www.galvanize.com/san-francisco/web-development **free Webdev Courses www.udemy.com www.lynda.com I hope you enjoyed the coding bootcamp review!
