Sorry, no they wouldn't. WHY, you say? Because my first programming course started with about 30 people. I was already programming as a hobby, had my own computer, because I loved to do it. It fascinated me getting computers to do my bidding, but it wasn't easy.

As the rest of the class soon discovered, since most of them were there for the money you could make in the field. Six of us completed the class and continued. Meaning the other 24 found it just too hard or not to their liking for some reason.

STEM isn't like other fields. It takes work, intelligence, dedication and a love of it.
