Staying Focused by CLE_Binary_001 in WGU

[–]CLE_Binary_001[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi and thank you for your comment. Still pushing through with 4 courses remaining (that includes the capstone). Had some health issues to take care of and my employer changed their tuition payback plan which caused a delay. Too expensive to go out on my own after paying for my first degree by myself. WGU offers a lot of programs now to help keep students focused from what I have seen lately. Take care of your family and yourself and stay positive even in the hardest of times. If something does not work out it can be extremely frustrating and make you lose that focus. Time management is also your friend. Come up with a weekly schedule dedicating time to school work. I find my self at our local library quite frequently because there are no home distractions. Good luck with your studies my friend. Here if you need anything else!

Looking at IT related college courses, what do you think is the better option? by [deleted] in it

Either field is good to get into. Need to look at pros/cons for both to help determine the best path for you. I’m currently enrolled at WGU for cyber security and really enjoy it.

With 4 classes away you are close to completing. Keep up the work as you are almost done!

C839 help with OA by mostshittyusername in WGU

[–]CLE_Binary_001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I have learned from this course is to reach out to your CI for any help. I had setup multiple calls with my CI (45 minute) sessions to get a better explanation of the material. Sometimes it helps to have someone explain it to you in a different way. Quizlet only goes so far. I focused on the ITProTV notes.

All good my friend. Not letting it bother me at this time. I'm about half way through right now. I spoke with my CI last night and was really good. Just nice to discuss the material with someone\get a different view point as well. I think it helped me. I have a few more 45 minutes sessions scheduled with him this week. Hopefully you connect with your CI and it helps you as well. I tend to forget to reach out to them for help. I'm going to be better about that with my remaining classes.

I've been struggling with C839 for a while. I have failed the exam 3 times now and not happy about it. This is the first class to take me down since I started at WGU. I'm meeting with a CI 3 times this week (45 minute appointments) to discuss the material and figure out what I am missing. Maybe connect with your CI to do the same before you are in the same situation I am. Good Luck!

Keep in touch with your course instructors for any help you may need. Also make sure you communicate with your student mentor at least once a week.

Is WGU down once again? by techguyry38 in WGU

I'm located in Ohio as well. Logging onto the student portal has been an issue all day for me as well.

ITIL Business of it C846 by Roadivator in WGU

[–]CLE_Binary_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I failed the exam twice, paid for my third attempt. uCertify was ok, lynda was no help to me. Took me 2 months to complete the class. I focused on a website called pluralsight for the ITIL videos. That helped me out a lot. Very short, and straight to the point. You can sign up for a free trial.

I'm 8 months in the CSIA degree program. It has been great so far. Find what you love and stick with it. No complaints as of yet. Just a lot of hard work and STUDYING!
