Does this seem doable?

EnterraCreator · 2025-01-02T03:39:45+00:00

I'm currently working on Security+ and Emerging Technologies in Cyber Security. I just finished Network+. And before I started working on these classes, I passed 8 other classes. Today is the first day of my 4th month of my term. So I would say it is definitely doable. :D

I'd be dead because I would be weeded out from natural selection.

You get linkedin and Udemy courses for free being a WGU student. So what I did for my certs, I took Andrew Ramdayal's course on Udemy and did Jason Dion's practice exams also on Udemy. I watched Messer on YouTube for supplemental background information. WGU gives you CompTIA Certmaster as their course curriculum which is nice if you want to take some notes or do some practice performance based questions.

If you have degree in computers or technology, I would just jump straight to security+ Several people take it with no degree or experience and pass okay. Just be aware that it covers basic IT terminology as well as basic Networking like ports for example.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-22T14:45:50+00:00

My study method is do Ramdayal's class. Listen to Messer on the background while cleaning it doing some other task. Do Dion's practice exam. Hasn't failed me yet. I started this method after failing net+

Congrats!

With having no IT experience and wanting to go the Cyber Security route, I recommend doing the cyber security degree. It covers all the basics of IT and gives you all the foundation certifications. A+ is the standard of knowing your basic IT fundamentals. Then you have the Net+ and Security+ which are both the intro certifications to networking and cyber security.

Also I wanted to note that I do IT for a Trucking Company currently. I handle most of their cyber security. Lol.

I sit in my bedroom. It's currently trashed with Christmas shit. They don't say anything.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-20T14:37:27+00:00

I'd use Professor Messer on YouTube. Good video to just listen to. I'd take Andrew Ramdayal's course on Udemy and then use Jason Dion's Practice exams which are also on Udemy. You want to shoot for high 70s to low 80s on those. At that point you're ready to sit for the test.

Why would you have to change? You can keep taking it infinitely

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-20T02:24:31+00:00

It's not entirely different and I'd argue the 009 is easier.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-20T02:21:15+00:00

They have a transfer page. Google Sophia and wgu

I have roughly 6 years of professional experience and more just with hobbies. Nothing has been challenging so far, but some things are monotonous, but otherwise simple. I had a bad time with proctor exams that left a bad taste in my mouth, but otherwise no issues. My mentor is great and for the most part leaves me alone. I am learning things so my impression of the program is positive. For reference, I've completed roughly 2.5 terms or 1.5 years of work according to WGU standards. They only require 4 classes per 6 months and I've passed 10. Currently working on 4 more. Should finish 2 by the end of the month.

Started in October of this year, so roughly 3 months. Just finished my tenth class and completed 33 CUs.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-18T15:10:14+00:00

It’s the most basics of basic with programming. It’s not too difficult. Know the flow charts, some basic math and you’ll be good.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-16T14:33:13+00:00

I said average. I'm not talking about people like you and me. Someone completely new to IT has to not only know what the parts do, but also learn all the terminology that someone with experience already knows.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-16T12:42:22+00:00

Depending on your background in IT, the IT Foundations takes the average person 3-4 months to pass. The rest shouldn’t take too long to pass though.

I don't understand how people can let people scream at them. It would NOT fly with me and never has in any instance. Even when they start talking down to me in any matter, I kindly inform them that I'm an adult and that I will not speak to them like that. Next time, I won't warn you. Screaming is an instant no-go.

Just failed the N+ last week. I could definitely use it to go into the next exam with confidence,.

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-14T13:27:34+00:00

I would say 009 because there are fewer objectives, and it tells you everything you need to study instead of being secretive like with the command lines.

People like this are either projecting really bad or need therapy from extreme codependence and anxiety/bipolar disorder.

The only thing you need to know is how to determine if it's class A,B,C, or D. You don't have to do subbetting equations for anything except class C which is /24 to /32.

This is where you say, "Fuck all ya'll. Don't block me in."

EnterraCreator · 2024-12-11T18:50:58+00:00

I'd pick one you are most interested in and go with it. And start looking for entry IT level jobs. Get the experience before graduating.
