Tracks... How long do they take?

Click the "schedule" button and put down when you want to complete it, it gives a rough estimate how long it takes and how much you would need to study each day to complete it by then.

Im doing the front end developer and its suggesting 50+ hours, but that depends on the person and how much knowledge they already have.

Hello Bob Cat,

PHP Development track is about 88 hours it took me almost 10 weeks to finish it, don´t rush it, I know it looks like its going to take forever but at the end is totally worth it.

It's also worth noting that there is some overlap in the tracks... the Front-End track took me a little under a month to complete, and that was putting in some serious time (tried to complete at least a little bit every night, put in many hours on the weekends). However, now that I've gotten most of that out of the way, I've started the PHP track and it says it'll only take me 22 hours to complete now that I've knocked out a few of the front end courses.

Really though, my recommendation would be to SLOW DOWN and do some more tinkering on your own after every course. For instance, after you've set up your personal site, use that as a test bed for trying out each new skill that you learn. My tendency, at least, is to plow through stuff because I get really excited about learning new things, but then I realize I haven't really taken the time to truly master it (or at least get very comfortable with it) and put it into practice. I think I'm going to spend some time overhauling the design of my personal site (that I created at the beginning of the Front-End track) before I really dig into the PHP course.
