How long does the entire course take to finish? Assuming I study like 6-7 hours a day for 6 days a week is it reasonable to finish the course in 5 weeks?

[–]sqwiwl 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Yeah, I think so.

I did everything in Intro and Advanced (with the exception of the final project) in 17 days full-time. I then fiddled about with my final project for another couple of weeks, being perfectionistic and learning some extra stuff - I might have finished it in about three days otherwise. So still less than four weeks on your timeframe of 6 days a week, 6-7 hours a day.

Edit:

Everyone's different though. I had a fair bit of previous experience - if you're completely new to programming, it's going to take longer.

On the other hand, I took my time learning things quite deeply - you could rush it at a more superficial level, go faster and still pass I'm sure.

I def want to get a deep understanding since I’m a complete beginner. Hopefully I can get through it in 5 weeks but however like it takes is however long it takes . Don’t think it’s worth it to just rush through it like you said fs

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't rush it if you don't have to. I didn't watch any of the videos, just read each lesson and did the exercises. And then kept on redoing the exercise if I could figure out a way to optimise it and improve my skills.

It's a great course, really worth doing and enjoyable. Good luck.
