      If I understand the deal right, it's "We train you for free. You only pay us back if that training was worthwhile."

      So how would you differentiate Lambda and Flatiron School?

      full CS curriculum not just a bootcamp, twice the length, no deposit, not self-guided

      Flatiron school isn’t self guided, we’re pretty hands on both online and in-person, not sure what you mean by full cs curriculum or twice the length, tuition doesn’t account for opportunity cost of students, and we’ve had over a thousand grads and have been at this for 6 Years.

      We're six months full-time, a year plus if part-time, and completely free until you're making $50k+. We spend a lot of time in C, spend a lot of time in computer architecture, etc., so a different curriculum. He just asked how we're different, I answered. No hate for flatiron.
