YMMV. I don't expect everyone to get 130k TC, but that has been the case so far.

A few things that helps:

1. Content must be lean. Learn foundations.

2. Really drill down those foundations.

3. Work experience: most of a student's journey is actually working together as a team to build / launch products. I role play as a project manager and run weekly sprints.

4. Relevant Technologies: I work as an engineering lead during the day, I make sure student's work experience covers all of industry trends (currently: GraphQL, React, Apollo Client)
