They are not expecting you to get all of this in such a short period of time if you are a complete beginner, as they mention, they are testing your current knowledge to assess at what level or what rate to continue your education, I am thinking if you get all or most of these exercises correct so soon, they may speed things up faster than what you may be able to handle??? A word of caution, I have not taken code academy but I was an instructor in the Military, non programming of course and for people who could not keep up to a certain speed or comprehension level, they were sent back 3 days to go over certain aspects again, this happened all the time, no negative connotations to the student, its just the way things went to be sure when you graduate, you got 95% of what you were taught. I suggest you understand what your comprehension level will be, the course will get more difficult for sure as time goes by and will require more research on your part so only you know how many hours per week you can give up for this advancement in a new career so good luck. You will only learn by actually doing the exercises, fully understanding what each chapter is trying to teach you and then you apply it in multiple ways as the training moves forward, like anything else but for programming, you must learn the hard way, by doing.
