Bootcamper Progress Updates

• Robson - Finished last task; final review this week if possible

  • Get this done!!! :d

  • Hoping to get it reviewed soon!

• Tom: Watching the buck converter videos and final questions left.

  • I made way too big of a doc for all the questions, and it’s been so long since the beginning that I’ll likely have to study before I’m tested on it. I also did it on my note-taking app, not sure if it’s as convenient to send to someone. Can I reach out at any point to request a review or to be tested?

    • @Michael Botros to discuss in bootcamp thread

• Mena: Meeting setup with Michael to review!
