Tldr; this program will push you to your limits and expand what you thought you were capable of. If you can't make it here, you're no less capable of doing this work, this is just a super intense environment that's not meant for every learning style.

Long: AppAcademy has been a whirlwind of a learning experience. I came in with some prior experience coding, but not enough to do anything with. Before I got accepted into the actual program I spent about 2 months preparing by learning ruby, in part with their JumpStart program, which I strongly suggest if they ask you to join - it's free compared to the Bootcamp Prep, but isn't as in-depth from what I hear. Take the AlphaCourse really seriously - don't approach it with the attitude of "it only takes x hours to finish, I'll wait until x hours before it's due!" because that's the mentality that gets you failing out of the program.
The curriculum has been worked over by a lot of people and on the whole is very solid and thorough, but at times can be hard to follow if you don't understand the style it is being conveyed to you in. That said, after 9 weeks of the curriculum, I made a fully functioning, albeit slightly bare-bones, website which completely blew my mind to see the progress I made. This accomplishment is just as much due to my own abilities as it is to the curriculum, institution, and the teachers they employe here.
10/10 would suggest, but I need at least a solid week of rest following this. Be ready to put in a minimum of 10 hour days and 60 hour weeks - anything less is a fleeting luxury. When you get to the cap-stone project you get 10 days, expect to work those 10 days straight and put a minimum of 100 hours into your project.
