Hey! Thanks for stopping to read this post,
This thread and the people in it inspired me to take on a self development track. It is currently kicking my a$$, but I'm not going to give up on it yet.

As part of this track, I spend as many hours in the day as I can reading up on programming and making projects to test what I have been learning. This has been a good method of practice for me, and knowing that I have only been doing it (and love doing it) for a few months has me excited about the future. There has been both web dev and desktop applications in my lineup, but am planning on focusing more on the back end technologies while still being able to make my on websites.

My question to any more experienced programmers out there is: is there any point in taking courses like on Udemy or Treehouse? I am currently a freshman in college, and at the moment I am not taking any computer science classes because I have tested out of the first semester, but I am just wondering if there is any use in taking courses from websites like these...

Thanks, and I hope you have a good day!
