I am currently attending Hacker School and fall in the less experienced camp and can honestly say that the experience has been nothing short of fantastic. The environment is incredibly conducive to learning, no question is seen as too basic and there is always someone that can help with working through a problem. I have grown tremendously as a programmer over the last couple months, much more so than I would have been able to working on my own, and I attribute that to the other programmers I have been able to work with at Hacker School.
