I do not recomend anyone to take any immersive bootcamp with no knowleadge. Honestly, this kind of knowleadge requires a lot of repetition and practice. My advise is do as follows:
1) learn Fast Typing. If you don't know how to type fast, a good free website is www.Typingclub.com It is veeeery important to keep your attention on the screen when coding, rateher that shifting your attention to the keyboard.
2)Finish ALL of the folowing free websites certifications:

2)Finish ALL of the folowing free websites certifications:
a)All of the certificates of www.freecodecamp.com.
b)After finished with freecodecamp, then start from scratch and do all of the tutorials at www.codeschool.com . Yes, do the same thing you did on the previous website, AGAIN; take the Javascript course as if it was the first time you have ever seen Javascript; be patient, it may seem repetitive and tedious at first, but it is worth it, it is practice. Remember the baseball players have to practice easy throws for many hours beforfe being able to perform good in a MLB game. Finish all free courses in the following order: HTML/CSS, Javascript, JQuery, comand line, RubyOnRails, learnGIT.
c) My recomendation is to even take all the free courses on www.codecademy.com as well; Yes, all of the from scratch. why? at that point you should be ablke to just fly through all the excescises and lessons and finish thye entire body of lessons in a matter of a week. On every website you will find a new piece of information that was not covered by the others.
* it would be even a good ide if you are spending over $10,000 in a bootcamp to pay for a $20 membership at one of those site to get opremium access to other lessons that will prepare you even better. Trust me, payin extra $20 for a couple of months will make you take a really good advantage when you start you $10k bootcamp.
3) Then, and ONLY THEN, enroll in a 3-month on-site intensive immersive bootcamp.
4) Most likely, the school will require for you to work on a pre-course project to get you up to speed by the time the actual bootcamp starts. you should be able to finish the pre-course assigments in half the time of the other students. Normally that is a 40-hours period you must dedicate to finish the pre-requisite before starting class. If there is a waiting list and you can;t start right away, keep practicing on sites such as www.codewars.com. Also learn how to work with the developers tools such as the inspector from google and mozila; codeschool.com has a really good tutorial on their website for that.
Now let me warn you: what you learn in all the self teaching tutorials form those websites, is JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. By no means are you prepared to apply for any jobs. It requires A LOT of practice. While in school, make sure to prepare really good portfolio quality projects, that's why it is important you come already knowing the basics of coding on each topic by finishing those tutorials. It is hard, it is not easy, but if you come prepared to the bootcamp by finishing all the free online tutorial from those websites, it will be a very pleasurable and rewarding experience, otherwise it will be very VERY frustrating.
So, plan yourself for 3 months preparing for the 3-4 months long bootcamp to really be able to learn what you need to learn to start a carreer as a developer.
