Why is nobody talking about Arpit Bhayani and his 50k worth system design cohorts?

Everyone is behind the so called linkedin influencers who sell courses for cracking FAANG interviews.But why is nobody talking about this man-Arpit Bhayani. His system design cohort is worth 50k rupees. Why isn't anyone questioning him?

Do you people know about Arpit Bhayani?

yes
no

Bcz ppl are dump and stupid. Everyone wants some quick solution to earn 50LPA+ .. Thats not how it works.Hahahaha.. some ppl still now accepting this scam of MAANGA / FAANGA ppl !! Ppl like arpit will retire in few years but you will still crib about your manager , your company and still go to office and enroll in some other course thinking this might be the end game !

Yes, I follow his youtube channel and he teaches well.But, that doesn't justify the price of his cohorts.

All the people complaining, has anyone even purchased it and didn't find it useful? I simply don't understand the negativity shown to these people.

I can totally understand fuckallness of influencers like Revanth Murugipudi and shit, they haven't been in tech long enough to be commenting shit, but Arpit has been in tech for over a decade, has held good posts, wide range of experience and it can be seen from the work he shows. From the looks, he does have the credentials for System Design teaching. I really fail to realise the hatred. If you are good at something, you can teach it to people, there's absolutely nothing wrong in it to get paid to do it, is there?

I watch his videos on system design. He is good but the point is that the cohort is extremely overpriced. I really respect your point of view. I still follow him on linkedin and youtube. But,40k for a recored course is way too much !! Don't you think so?

I really don't. I don't set the price, I see if the knowledge or the wisdom I am getting, is it worth paying. I honestly cannot Guage if it's overpriced or not, but if it helps me become a better engineer without myself spending countless hours exploring, I don't see a reason to not spend on it.

I am saying this bcoz I have spent in other such websites as well which I know to be top notch, and I pay in dollars. Have 0 regrets.

All in all, I would much rather see a review by someone who has indeed taken the course and tells me that it ain't worth it and why for me to even understand the hatred.

Again, I am basing all of this based on the kind of man I think he is. I could totally be wrong and he would be a fuckall person who's doing all this to skim money. Won't know unless I see the proof. For now, I like the content he posts on linkedin, it resonates with the ideal engineer I see/envision

I had interviewed for shrey batra's startup (apparently he knows aprit) so he asked me if I had enrolled in any of arpit's cohort I did watch some of his YouTube videos. (I never found out if the interviewer thought I answered something wrong which might be trait of arpit's learners or the opposite case where I did well)

As of the price, idk one should buy it if they're questioning the price worthiness.

It's a free market most likely top x% people are finding value in it, plus people working at large can get reimbursed for it.

Drawing parallels to people questioning anything that's priced higher than median, be it that bwm or st. regis stay, whatever you can imagine, don't make the item/experience worthless/hyped up.

Heck people even question the worthiness of ₹2000 shoes over ₹500 shoes, it's all relative to the individual's ability nothing changes, if one can't afford it.

Simple as that.

For a long time I was not able to even afford gfg course, didn't crib about it found alternative way to learn.

Nobody is cribbing. I get it—you can afford it! Kudos to you!! But is 50k justified for that system design cohort? If you talk about if the course is affordable to me, personally, then the answer is yes, I have the money to get enrolled in the cohort. But why would I? I have access to a lot of free resources, books, websites. Why would I spend this amount of money on learning system design by paying for it?

See, even a person earning 50k can buy something on EMIs, but the real question is about the value and justification of the expense. Investing in a system design cohort for 50k should offer something beyond what free resources and books provide.

However, if you feel confident in your ability to self-study and leverage free resources effectively, then you might not need to spend that money. It's all about weighing the value you perceive against the cost and making a decision that best suits your personal and professional needs.

I can afford it, but I respect my money enough to not fall into such heavy jargons of Engineering.

Just an extention to my previous reply: So spending 50k on a course is like buying a BMW, right? Well, my one bottle of serum costs 1.5k, and that's just for my face. If quality education is like luxury cars, I must be driving a fleet of Bentleys with my skincare routine alone. Thanks for the insight!

He guilt trips his followers by saying "I am not getting views so I will also make day in the life videos", "i will also make office tours" etc.. He is a great engineer, his profile is the proof but he is no different to other bhaiyya didis when it comes to selling courses

I'm so scared after looking at comments coz they are coming from noobs. I have taken the course. It won't make justice to call it course, it is more of a brainstorm/discussion session. Ofcourse it's a one way lecture to start with, which transforms into discussion.

It's NOT focussed on cracking interviews. I haven't taken any interview cracking course, so I don't know how they are. But Arpit's thing is not that. I am working with Practo since quite some time, I'm not a fresher. And that course is not meant for freshers.

I vouch for it coz it is really about preaching engineering. If you are a guy with no curiosity, and don't like to solve real engineering problems, it's not for you. If you are the guy who mugged up things for exams, it's not for you. Don't go for it.

It's ironic that experienced developers like you are enrolling in his course. What exactly are you learning at your own company? Are you just writing APIs? You mentioned that you took this course to solve engineering problems. Shouldn't that be part of your daily work at your company instead of learning and cramming theory elsewhere? Who's the noob here? Think again!
