Yea, I went to one of these years ago just when they were starting up. A couple of the students were very impressive at the end of the 12 weeks, but I was not. It is a lot of information at an extraordinary pace. I found that I could not sustain more than 11-12 hours a day of work, taking some of Saturday and all of Sunday off. I had no social life during this period outside of the camp, but did get an beginner level job offered to me at the end of it. It still took years before I felt comfortable saying that I was a developer.
