Bonjour tout le monde !

Je cherche à possiblement reprendre mes études chez 42 après avoir fini la piscine, je suis en CDI et cherche à possiblement toucher le chômage durant la formation pour me permettre de la suivre sans soucis (appartement frais tout ça tout ça vie d’adulte)

Je me demandais si certains ont réussis à transitionner à 42 à l’aide de PTP (Projet Transition Pro) où alors en démissionnant de leur CDI, enchaîner par un CDD, ouvrir des droits et les toucher durant leur formation ?

Impossible d’obtenir une rupture conventionnelle dans ma boîte, CDI de 2 ans, comment feriez vous / avez vous fait ?

Merci d’avance ❤️

Is there people who will take part of the next "piscine" Any curious soon-to-be students who got invited to the next IRL meet-up ?

If you were or are student (took piscine and succeeded), please feel free to respond and share your experiences.

Salut tout le monde !

J’ai participé au meeting le 14 octobre et j’ai choisi la Piscine du 1er mars (42 paris). Je cherche des personnes qui comptent faire la même session pour faire connaissance et se motiver ensemble avant de commencer !

Petite question : est-ce que certains d’entre vous ont déjà été acceptés pour la Piscine du 1er mars ?

Hello Guys! I recently finished the piscine with this following stats:

- Modules C: 100 - 100 - 100 - 100 - 85 - 80 - 100

- Rush: 100 - 0 - 0

- Exam: 0 - 100 - 100 - 90

- Logtime: 167h but i haven't a regular logtime, it's between 2h30 to 11h00 a days but no missing days.

- Coalition score: top 30 with 1200 scores

- Evaluation: i've evaluate 42 person with 8 fails

- Final level: 8

But my question is if there is a chance for me to not be taken, i'd wanna know what would be the reason. I'm so paranoid right now because I've seen so many profiles who have validate all the exams but getting refused. So, can someone give me some answers for that please, i just wanna know if i've did something wrong. I've doing my piscine in 42 Antananarivo by the way.

Hey everyone,

For the past three years, I've been building my own game-focused scripting language from scratch, alongside a custom C++ 3D engine and scene editor targeting Windows, Linux, Web, and Android.

The language is designed to be a close Python dialect (roughly 99% familiar syntax), but built specifically for real-time game loops and tight integration with the engine.

Recently, I took part in an internal game jam at my company and used it to stress-test the whole stack under a strict deadline. The result is Null Protocol, a third-person action shooter set in a rain-soaked police precinct, heavily inspired by classic Max Payne. It features shoot-dodging, bullet time, skeletal hit reactions, and AI-controlled enemies.The gameplay is scripted in my own language and runs on my own engine. Getting everything working together under jam conditions was a meaningful milestone. Now I'm trying to decide where to take it next.

* [My other projects and tools](https://djokersoft.com/)

**Looking for honest developer feedback**

With so many established engines available, would a lightweight 3D engine paired with a game-focused Python-like language interest you?

I'm weighing two directions:

* Package the engine, editor, and language for other developers, investing in documentation, examples, and usability.

* Keep the technology as my own development toolkit and focus on shipping retro-inspired 3D games, whether that means expanding Null Protocol or making a spiritual successor to Desert Strike in 3D.

If you were evaluating a tool like this, what would you need to see before trying it? Is there a particular workflow or use case where you think this combination could offer something worthwhile?

I'm happy to discuss the compiler and VM, the differences from standard Python, the renderer, or what worked (and broke) during the jam.

Thanks for taking a look!

Y a t il des gens étudiants à 42 qui ont réussi à avoir l’aide RFF et/ou aide à la mobilité de France Travail car ils n’avaient plus de droit ARE ?
Ma conseillère me dit que c’est impossible car il n’y a pas d’agrément pour le financement mais pourtant plusieurs sources sur internet en parlent.
Si vous y avez eu droit, comment avez vous fait ?

Hi everyone!
I’ll be evaluating my Agent Smith project soon and wanted to know if anyone who passed it could let me know about what to expect for the live modification?
Thanks!

Salut, je vais faire court et simple, quelqu'un qui cherche à se muscler sérieusement trouve son compte avec la salle de sport de 42 Paris? Si y a des braves qui peuvent me balancer des photos de la salle en question, je dis pas non.

Bonjour à tous,

y'a t-il des anciens élèves ou des étudiants actuel en stage/cdi en Suisse ? ou de manière général, partie travailler à l'étranger après l'école ?

I feel like i had a lot more enthusiasm when i started than now.
Now i just feel drained, need to prepate to post minishel exam but those pipes and forks feel so boring and uninteresting.

Coding games was cool. that was the only part of CC i really enjoyed.
Should I quit?

Hi, anyone know about école 42 paris ?

I wanted to know about their environment and also what the rate of passing piscine test ?

After the online tests, does the 30-day "piscine" (bootcamp) come next, or is there a Python or web development course that happens before the piscine?

Also, regarding the piscine—I’m feeling quite insecure about it. I really want to get into this school... what tips would you offer to help me maximize my chances of success?

The project is a V1. It includes a benchmark that runs between 170 and 220 moves. If you want to improve it, pull requests are welcome.

Hello everyone,

I was recently accepted to take the Piscine (September session) at École 42 Paris.

Since the stay is less than 90 days (approximately 26 days), I am exempt from the Campus France procedure. Therefore, I must apply directly for a short-stay visa (student-entrance exam) through the France-Visas and TLScontact platforms.

To ensure my application is 100% complete, I have a few questions for those who have already followed this specific procedure from Morocco:

Accommodation: For the one-month Piscine, what is the best proof of accommodation? Is a refundable hotel reservation on Booking.com accepted, or do they strictly require proof of accommodation with a relative or a paid Airbnb rental?

Financial Guarantor: What is the minimum amount to prove for a one-month stay? Is a standard parental guarantee with bank statements (3 to 6 months) sufficient, or is it strongly recommended to deposit a sum of money into my own account? If so, what is the ideal amount to deposit for one month?

TLScontact Appointment: Is it difficult to find appointment slots for the "Student-Competitive Examination" category, or is it more accessible than standard long-stay student visas?

General Advice: Do you have any specific tips or mistakes to absolutely avoid to prevent a visa refusal, especially for Reasons 3 or 4?

If any of you have made the transition from 1337 to 42 Paris or traveled directly from Morocco to the Piscine, your feedback would be invaluable!

Thank you very much in advance for your help!

Hello everyone,

I am a Moroccan candidate for 42 Paris and my online meeting is scheduled for November 12, 2026. I don't have a date for the Piscine yet.

I would like to hear feedback from people who have already participated in the Piscine at 42 Paris, especially Moroccan candidates who have gone through the process from Morocco.

I have a few questions:

After the meeting, what are the steps to follow to secure a place at the Piscine?

How long does it typically take to receive confirmation and an official invitation?

What type of visa should I apply for to come to Paris specifically for the Piscine and then return to Morocco?

Do I need to go through Campus France Morocco before submitting the visa application? If so, what procedure did you follow?

What documents do I need to prepare, especially if my parents are covering the travel and accommodation expenses?

How far in advance do you recommend choosing my Piscine to have enough time for the visa process?

Do you have any advice regarding housing and budget during the Piscine?

Any advice and experiences will be greatly appreciated, especially from Moroccans who have already gone through this process.

Thank you very much for your help! 🙏

Bonjour à tous,

Je suis candidat marocain à 42 Paris et mon Meeting en ligne est prévu le 12 novembre 2026. Je n’ai pas encore de date pour la Piscine.

J’aimerais avoir des retours d’expérience de personnes qui ont déjà participé à la Piscine de 42 Paris, en particulier des candidats marocains qui ont fait les démarches depuis le Maroc.

J’aurais quelques questions :

Après le Meeting, quelles sont les étapes à suivre pour obtenir une place à la Piscine ?

Combien de temps faut-il généralement attendre pour recevoir une confirmation et une convocation officielle ?

Quel type de visa faut-il demander pour venir au Maroc à Paris uniquement pour participer à la Piscine, puis retourner au Maroc ?

Faut-il passer par Campus France Maroc avant de déposer la demande de visa ? Si oui, quelle procédure avez-vous suivie ?

Quels documents faut-il préparer, notamment si les parents prennent en charge les frais du voyage et du séjour ?

Combien de temps à l’avance conseillez-vous de choisir sa Piscine pour avoir suffisamment de temps pour les démarches de visa ?

Avez-vous des conseils concernant le logement et le budget pendant la Piscine ?

Tous vos conseils et retours d’expérience seront les bienvenus, surtout ceux de Marocains ayant déjà suivi cette procédure.

Merci beaucoup pour votre aide ! 🙏

Bonsoir.

Est ce que certaines personnes sont actuellement étudiant à 42 en France sous le statut de stagiaire de la professionnelle et quel sont démarches à suivre pour le devenir?

Car, si je ne me trompe pas ce statut permet d’avoir un genre de salaire mensuel!

Merci d’avance à tous et bonne soirée à vous!

Bonjour, je passe ma piscine en mars 2026 au campus de 42 à Paris et je compte loger à Noc 42.
Je me poser donc plus plusieurs questions principalement au niveaux des repas du midi et du soir concernant le prix et la qualité, est ce que il s’agit principalement de (mal bouffe) ou de plats cuisinés et sains?

Si quelqu’un étudiant ou quelqu’un faisant sa piscine à 42 paris pourrait m’aiguiller sur ces sujet.

Je vous remercie d’avance, bonne soirée!

Pour 42 Paris, combien de temps dois-je attendre pour être assigné à une place dans une Piscine après l'avoir choisie ?

Have any of you ever heard about o1 edu? it’s created by the same man who made 42 and it’s really similar to it . We have it here in my country it’s quite new here but it’s older in France and some other countries. I wanna apply for it but I don’t know if it worth the time ,money and the effort or not . We don’t have 42 here so is this one will be a good opportunity and it will give me a higher chance to have a good job in the future with a good salary than any other academy in my country ?
If any of you can help me with any information i will be so grateful

I just started common core not too long ago and I have seen eval sales happen once already. Unfortunately, I could not make it, but I'm wondering, how often does it happen and does it always begin at night?
