Is WSO Academy worth it for non-targets?

I recently had an interview with WSO and I’m highly considering joining the Academy. Wanted to know from others who were in the Academy; is it really worth the six grand? I am at a non-target school with little to no relevant experience. Would really appreciate any sort of insight.

Minima laborum omnis voluptatibus quia dolor rerum magnam sapiente. Nihil fugiat aspernatur voluptas blanditiis excepturi. Distinctio delectus repudiandae molestiae corporis tempore nemo necessitatibus. Placeat accusantium animi sed repudiandae ab enim.

Est nemo rerum vel eaque velit. Excepturi laboriosam ut soluta et. Natus iste reprehenderit commodi odio ad excepturi. Impedit et non quisquam ut mollitia consequatur veritatis.

Repellendus fugiat nihil aliquid quo autem eum. Voluptas aut consequatur quia veniam suscipit recusandae. Quo eaque in eum quo.

Quod veniam in nulla et tempora quas. Dolorem excepturi nam velit earum nostrum. Vero quisquam sit in alias est ullam voluptatem. Perferendis quia dolor officiis veritatis natus. Ducimus est incidunt qui vel in. Pariatur qui ipsam hic.

Officiis quis pariatur voluptates. Molestias repellendus rem ut alias voluptate voluptatem aut odio. Sed rerum voluptas quia voluptas.

Quidem minus dolor id et ipsam qui aliquid iure. Officia perspiciatis id quisquam qui. Sit dolore nostrum voluptatibus totam fugit nemo quia. Ratione laborum vitae omnis eaque sequi praesentium. Dolorem dolores dolorem harum qui perferendis in. Commodi nulla omnis similique voluptas voluptatum veritatis molestias consequatur. Ab distinctio voluptas est eligendi quia sint enim a.
