After spending an entire summer in the Bay Area at an intensive coding bootcamp called Horizons, I have been trying to reflect on one of the biggest decisions in my college career thus far. This is because the way high achieving students utilize their vacations determines how much of an edge they can get against the competition. This is present in all fields, not just computers and technology. Students spend summers shadowing doctors if they are premed or interning at bulge bracket banks if they are in finance, all in the hope of clout and leverage over competition back in school.

I will try my best to give an objective analysis of my summer there and apply it to bootcamps in general, but the truth is everyone has their own biases. Everyone’s situation is different. It is important to take analysis and reviews with a grain of salt.
