(Motivation) Bachelor of Science, Information Technology
I'm going to be completely honest. I have two courses + the capstone.
Networks – D325
Network and Security - Applications – D329
IT Capstone Written Project – C769
My term ends November 30th. I am severely lacking motivation right now. I'm going through CBT Nuggets for the Network+.
I've loved so much of the program but at some point I just started finding it extremely difficult to spend the time. Family, weather, etc have all contributed.

Winding down
I started with 14 classes 4/1 in the BSIT program. So far, I’ve completed 6 courses. I am currently enrolled in three classes in which two I plan on being finished by the end of the week. I am hoping to get at least two more classes done after that. As much as I would have liked to get done with all of my classes this term, I am being more realistic with having a job and being a parent. I am very proud of my progress so far and I understand that it is a marathon, not a sprint . If you have taken any of the classes that I have left, I would really appreciate your feedback. Thank you!

Net+ Passed on Friday & Sec+ expired on Saturday. I achieved Trifecta for only 8Hrs. Only Sec+ renews A & Net. Badge went from secure infrastructure specialist to IT operations specialist😅
All I can say is that practice exams of Andrew R saved my skin. Even on exam day, without going through the required cert master amplifier and getting stuck for a year on the first part of section 3 studying, I managed to pass. Here’s my story: I’ve failed twice in the past, and on Friday, all I did was take four practice exams and review the answers I got wrong. It might not work for everyone, but I was tired of the PBQs relentlessly pursuing me during exam time. In fact, they might not have been the problem at all. It could have been my exam review techniques. To be honest I hardly touched those scary PBQs😅

Trying to minimize cost before starting BSIT. What would you do differently?
My teen is targeting BSIT at WGU and we're trying to be as strategic as possible about it. We're researching Study.com and Sophia as ways to knock out transfer credits before applying but I keep running into conflicting information about what actually maps cleanly to WGU requirements. For anyone who's already been through this, what would you have done differently in the planning phase?

PSA: JetBrains (maker of IntelliJ, Pycharm, etc) has a student license pack
E010 OA humbled me
Long story short, didn’t quite pass. Others who passed gave hints that the PA was similar to the OA. Being in the program, my assumption was the exam would be smooth like the excel spreadsheets one where the OA was basically the PA. Yeah, I was wrong. It definitely felt difficult and I basically chocked in the coding questions. Goes to show that the more practice you do, the better chances of passing. Time to go back to the zybooks material!

D427 and E010
So my job is a partner with study.com and all the employees are able to take courses there. I toke data Applications d427 ans python E010 there. I wanted to know can WGU will accept them D427 and E010? I'm thinking going back to school for my degrees and wanted to know.

AZ-900 Question
I previously posted about how I’m getting some certifications before I enroll to meet requirements for the degree (Cloud and Network Engineering Azure) and so I can try to get an entry level IT job if my current job goes south . These included A+, Network+, Security+, and Az900. I was told by a member that the Azure fundamentals did not transfer into credits, but I’m confused because it’s listed as a certification you receive in the program. Can someone shed light on this?

WGU AI engineering Laptop
I’m starting my classes for AI Engineering soon. I’m in need of a laptop and I need some help deciding on what to get. Am I overthinking the need of a powerful one or should I get something simple? Or even refurbished.

Is https://storage.studentdrive.org/ down or something?
I went to https://storage.studentdrive.org/s/WGU to try and study some of the material for C959 and it first went with a 502 gateway error from the nginx server, but now, after some hours, everything is a 404...

D522 PA feels messy
Swapped over to the PA and this has been a nightmare.
I’m familiar with running labs and some light python but the steps are so vague and everything halfway works.
For b2 as an example, I can’t seem to telnet into any of the devices even with gns3 showing them running, using telnetlib/netmiko and the ports in the csv or 23.
Are both tasks going to be this painful?

D415
I am very much struggling with D415. I took my first OA and failed it, even though I went in thinking I knew the material because of the PA. My class ends Thursday so what are some good resources I can look at so that I hopefully pass by then..

How many courses does will a CCNA cover?
Heyo!
I am pre-funking the BS IT to MS IT accelerated program by grabbing certs and ACE courses prior to enrolling.
I've been in the industry for many years, so I've been using that to my advantage by getting all of the easy certs out of the way (both A+, LSI, etc).
I do have a current Cisco CCNA. Now, when reading the General Transfer Guidelines I see the CCNA listed 3 times:
- D315 Network and Security - Foundations
- D325 Networks
- D329 Network and Security - Applications
Does this mean that I can transfer in that cert and have all three courses satisfied?
Sorry if this has already been covered, it really wasn't answered via Reddit search.

New MSIT Program
I just finished my bachelor's and I'm considering the new MSIT program. For those who are currently enrolled, how are the classes? How does the workload compare, and would you recommend it?

D281
What resources do I need for WGU 281. I keep looking online and I am seeing something about. Quizlet but I’m unsure if that post is outdated?

ITM > WGU ACCELERATED IT
Welp.. I knew I’d face reality,
I wished I would’ve taken my time and went the IT route rather then ITM. I’m here now… I want more certs, and want a masters. I know the industry a masters isn’t needed but this is a bucket list item.
With this being said…
Can one finish the accelerated bachelors and masters in IT within 6 months? Can I be through this paying only one tuition cost, masters?
Currently I have my bachelors in ITM from WGU and my network+. I have some real world IT experience at a desktop level with an MSP which will help with accelerating, I just don’t know if cost wise it will support it.

Would you switch to the new BSIT program in my situation?
I'm currently in the old BSIT program and have 5 courses remaining:
- D324 – Business of IT - Project Management
- C777 – Web Development Applications
- C773 – User Interface Design
- C724 – Information Systems Management
C769 – IT Capstone Written Project
My mentor told me that if I switch to the new BSIT catalog, I'd have these 6 courses remaining:
D324 – Business of IT - Project Management
E008 – Technology Management
D318 – Cloud Applications
E010 – Foundations of Programming (Python)
D522 – Python for IT Automation
E005 – Business Productivity Software
However, I already completed these courses:
- C867 – Scripting and Programming - Applications
- D278 – Scripting and Programming - Foundations
I believe those may satisfy the two Python courses (E010 and D522), but WGU's Program Change Team says they cannot evaluate transfer/applicable credit until the program change is actually processed. They also won't tell me how many courses I'd have remaining beforehand.
So I'm basically being asked to decide whether to switch without knowing if those Python courses will be removed.
One benefit of switching is that I'd avoid taking C777, which I've heard can be one of the more difficult courses in the old BSIT program.
Has anyone been in a similar situation? Did your previously completed programming courses satisfy the new Python requirements? And if you were in my shoes, would you take the chance and switch, or just stay in the current program and finish the last five courses?
I'd appreciate any experiences or advice before I make a decision.

Oh my god this fucking ticket!! I have been on it for DAYS but nothing is working. I sent the static info to my prof and they said it’s correct.

WHAT CAN I DO?! Also ticket 3 I cannot get either, every single other ticket has passed can I please get some help? I am losing hair over this pa lol

Easiest course here to knock out first
Looking to start out with a decent win. Which here do you think could be easiest to knock out first?
Thanks
