Comments

One of my friends is workingthrough SICP. (He left his job becauee he felt burnt out and wanted to do something different before he went back into a 9 to 5 job). He is posting the answers on his blog (http://lawfulsamurai.blogspot.com/search/label/SICP). This might be helpful to you

Wow, he started in December and he's on chapter 4 already!

I would be happy to finish SICP in one year.

[edit: Now I am reading his blog more closely and he only started posting his answers in December. He started reading SICP in July]

well, he didn't do too much for the first 3 or so months. so he really got down to work around September iirc.
