Which sentiments are misleading are why? Sorry for pushing you so much, it's not personal, but just because someone yells loudly "this is misleading", "this is fake", "this is misinformation" it doesn't make it so, and yelling more and more loudly doesn't make that more and more true.
It would be more useful for everyone to go through point by point, provide evidence, provide sources, challenge me and ask me what my sources are and why, etc... I'm very open to debating details of anything you think is misleading and we could have a great discussion about that on the thread.
Sophie makes it a point to have investors and advisors that staunchly disagree with each other on our team at Formation because having productive debates and looking at things from different angles can help the team get to the best conclusions.
I'm not just Googling and declaring my feelings on here... my sources in general are screenshots from leadership and talking to leadership of programs, public data directly from various programs and bootcamps, public review text from review sites, CIRR, Youtube videos with program leadership, employees/former employees, talking to students and aggregating their experiences, so clearly some sources are better than others and maybe together we can fill in some gaps.
Re: Codesmith specifically, I've been here for a while now and Codesmith seems to still have long waitlists, so I stand by my statement that I tell a lot of people to go there.
I'm much more interested in adding useful discourse on here for people to learn from. If you think Codesmith is perfect and has no downsides or problems that you are willing to talk about, then we probably won't be able to have that discussion.
