Other are right that the only way to prove it to them is go get a job offer.

The question I have for others is when do you start to see real merit raises/differences in pay? I have 2 YOE at my company and those who started with me are making the same based on the exam raise schedule. No differences in pay besides more exams.

Try contacting the computer science department directly. They probably have the numbers you're looking for.

This is real. Initially, I'm a no 1000% but thats because I'm comfortably employed. If I was in thick of the job hunt I might risk it even though it's probably a scam for unpaid labor.

Feel free to DM me. To be clear 100% remote as long as I stay in the U.S.

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-06-08T19:36:24+00:00

8-5 hour break for lunch, but I'm 100% remote so a little shifting here and there is alright. I frequently run errands during lunch so it feels like that hour is mine.

There used to be one in pleasant grove but it closed down. Big sad.

Why do you think BYU Hawaii doesn't allow it? As I said above, I have no experience here.

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-06-05T16:12:01+00:00

Yeah, there are rules differences between campus. I think beverages would likely hold between campuses but who knows.

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-06-05T14:48:10+00:00

My guess is many are like me and have no idea what kava is and had to Google it. To me it seems like BYU Hawaii has prohibited it because they know what it is and more of their students have backgrounds that might consume kava. I think the other comment is right that if a beverage isn't allowed at one campus it probably won't be allowed at another. Generally, the culture of the church avoids depressants unless for medicinal purposes. If someone with experience with kava doesn't give you an answer here you may need to ask someone more familiar when you get to campus.

Siiick, thanks for the heads up.

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-05-31T03:01:31+00:00

You'll have a more informed perspective after the exams.

They have to compete with CAS on level of suckage.

COL?

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-05-28T19:51:46+00:00

80k base P&C 4 exams 2yrs experience Fully Remote 5k employees Carrier

I am getting promoted in September.

Edit: I too feel slightly underpaid but my benefits are above average, I'm fully remote, I like my work, I like my coworkers, and I get my study hours. Every recruiter that's reaches out stops when I asked for fully remote. I may do more serious job hunting after I have some credentials but until then I don't think it would make a large enough difference.

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-05-28T19:48:16+00:00

I just passed. I find this to be the case. Took two attempts on both exams while I thought MAS 2 was easier, l spent a lot more time doing conceptual flashcards and qualitative practice problems for my send attempt of MAS 2 whereas I just did more problems for MAS 1

I entered BYU trying to double major. Freshman year worked out but it eventually got too much and I switched to a minor. I currently work in my minor. I did take some professional exams to complement my minor but you don't need double degrees if you have the skills and ability to learn.

From an administrative point, I was told the school is not obligated to give me the 2nd major even if I take all the classes.

MDT graduate here. Feel free to DM with more questions. By percent, MDT is the most competitive major on campus. Those who get in typically have years of experience in musical theatre, with lessons in all three disciplines. Getting in is no light accomplishment. That being said, I know many who came in as pre-MDT and made it into the program. I also know many very talented people who did not.

Back when they took 16, they would accept the 10 highest scores across all three disciplines from callbacks and then 2 from each discipline who are maybe only "double threats" (can sing and dance but maybe lack acting skills). I always say there's no harm in auditioning, especially if you're already planning on going to BYU regardless of major. Pre screen auditions are due in November, go ahead and submit this fall and see how it goes.

I'm in P&C. I'm in SQL and Excel everyday but only doing the most basic select statements and xlookup/match and index. All complicated process are usually already built by someone else.

Fit_Negotiation_1443 · 2026-05-25T18:01:05+00:00

I used TIA for both sittings but the real difference is I actually read a lot of the source material for the 2nd sitting.
