16,383 PointsHow long to finish the Full Stack JavaScript?
Hello, I want to finish the Full Stack JavaScript track as fast as possible. How long does this take on average?

243,253 PointsThe time estimate shown on the track page is 51 hours.
Of course, you might be able to reduce that by speeding up the videos, if you find you can still comfortably comprehend them.

3,838 PointsI think everyone has a different speed of learning. Also, you should not go through the courses with the goal of completing the courses, but instead really understanding and being able to use the things that are taught. I personally take anywhere from 2-4 times the estimated amount of time to go through the full stack javascript courses (at least one other reply I have seen has stated ~2x the time shown on the track), but I do pretty much everything including following along in the workspaces and even testing things out in the console to make sure I understand them, sometimes setting up entire tests separately to test inside of. If I am super focused without distraction, I would be closer to the 2x number, and 4x when also chatting on Facebook or something, or taking a lot of very long breaks.
I know this is an old question, but in case someone looks at this thread, I'd still like them to see this reply. :)
