We're now in the last couple of days of gSchool and I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I have ever made.
The first three months were very intense and were mainly dedicated to lectures, workshops, exercises and pair programming. We mainly learned ruby, javascript, html and css. Most days had a similar schedule where we'd start with a warmup problem to challenge our brains, learn some new things or solidify techniques we had previously learned, next we would listen to a couple of lectures or presentations. After lunch, we would normally pair up, work solo or in small groups on exercises that could take anywhere from one to eight days, depending on the project.
The last three months, we split our time between pairing on production code for real clients or working on our personal projects. The personal projects were an opportunity to really stretch our minds and skills by introducing completely new technologies of our choosing. You could chose to push your personal project as far as you want and had the help of the instructors if needed. We also all worked individually on a required class project so that we would have a complete project implementing many technologies to show employers of our skills.
Outside of class, my cohort was very social and we had many events such as Soup Sunday, a fantasy football league (which I'm still determined to win), barbecues, a prom party, twice weekly fitness bootcamp led by another student and many other things. I can honestly say that the people I met at gSchool will be not only my colleagues but also some of my best friends.
We also gathered once or twice a week to learn topics that weren't covered in class like computer science topics, algorithms, and code challenges. This was first created to just prepare us for job interviews but turned out to be tons of fun and really pushed our knowledge and skills.
The instructors at gSchool are all top notch and were absolutely amazing. I will say that gSchool is what you make of it. I had an amazing time and think that I am fully prepared to go into any job situation and will be able to perform at a high level and learn quickly BUT with that being said, if I had just done the bare minumum and not taken the initiative to push myself, I don't think it would have been quite as good.
If you have the chance to go to gSchool, you should absolutely do it.
