Great article. I wish BradfieldCS would offer some kind of discount for people from countries who don't have a USD salary. I make $600 a month before taxes and expenses. I can put aside $100-150 a month if I live slightly frugally and be strict with my savings. I don't see myself saving $1800 (12-18 months) to take up one course. Same goes for their new program - https://bradfieldcs.com/csi/ - $19500.
Does the author or anyone have any other free/affordable alternatives for BradfieldCS? teachyourselfcs is the only one I can think of which I'm following currently.
