Pull request overview

Updates the bootcamp orientation document to clarify expectations around the capstone timeline and to restructure/expand the certification test rules so participants better understand attempts, scoring, and specialization requirements.

Changes:

• Reframes the capstone project as occurring in chapter 6 and encourages earlier preparation for review/iteration.
• Rewrites the certification test section into a clearer, bullet-based format with scoring thresholds and updated extra-attempt criteria.
• Fixes capitalization of “Rustlings”/“Exercism” in the certification advice callout.

In this file we refer to chapters in lowercase (e.g., "chapter 6" earlier in the curriculum topology), but this paragraph uses "Chapter 6". Please standardize the casing to avoid inconsistent terminology within the same document.

You will be tasked with creating a portfolio project using Rust in Chapter 6. To achieve a high-quality result, you are strongly encouraged to begin preparation in advance. This will give you the necessary time for code reviews, iteration, and refinement before the final deadline. The project should highlight your proficiency in Rust and your chosen specialization, showcase your coding style, and demonstrate your problem-solving skills. The objective is to build a functional project that can be presented to potential employers or shared within the programming community.

Terminology/capitalization is inconsistent between "Basic Test" (bullet), "basic test" (same bullet text), and later "basic attempt" (specialization test note). Please pick one term (e.g., "basic test" vs "basic attempt") and use it consistently throughout this section to reduce reader confusion about what exactly they need to take/pass.

Suggested change

	- **Basic Test:** To successfully pass the basic test, you must achieve a minimum score of 75%.
	**Please note:** Participants who choose a specific specialization must also pass a separate specialization test, which follows the same format (offering both a shortened and a basic attempt).
	- **Basic test:** To successfully pass the basic test, you must achieve a minimum score of 75%.

This section says each participant gets "two initial attempts" and then adds that specialization students must also pass a separate specialization test with the same format. Please clarify whether the two initial attempts are granted per test (basic + specialization) or total across all required tests, and whether extra attempts apply to each test or only to the main certification test.

Suggested change

	It's important to note that passing the certification test is challenging due to its intricate and tricky questions. Each participant is granted two initial attempts, which function as follows:
	- **Shortened Attempt:** An opportunity to complete 10 questions in 10 minutes. If all questions are answered correctly (100% score), you will be awarded a certificate without the need to take the basic test.
	- **Basic Test:** To successfully pass the basic test, you must achieve a minimum score of 75%.
	**Please note:** Participants who choose a specific specialization must also pass a separate specialization test, which follows the same format (offering both a shortened and a basic attempt).
	Participants who complete any chapter (except Chapter 6) ahead of others, or attend all group meetings without exception, will be awarded an extra attempt. A single participant cannot receive more than one extra attempt for completing multiple chapters early. However, by meeting different criteria (e.g., finishing a chapter first AND perfect attendance), they can earn a maximum of two extra attempts in total.

However, by meeting different criteria (e.g., finishing a chapter first AND perfect attendance), they can earn a maximum of two extra attempts. These extra attempts apply separately to each required test, so a participant may use earned extra attempts on the main certification test and, if applicable, on the separate specialization test as well.

In the example criteria, "AND" is fully capitalized, which reads like emphasis/shouting and is inconsistent with the surrounding tone. Consider using lowercase "and" (or rephrasing) for a more neutral style.
