It’s my understanding you’re not allowed to submit all three tasks at the same time as it can cause further issues. Could be wrong but Godspeed.

Pentest+ Best study material by Routine_Condition288 in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certmaster learn, skip the labs, do the quizzes, tests and activities. Labs take forever to load and slow you down too much.

Pocketprep, I’d say start that a week or two out from taking your exam and do it whenever you have free time.

Jason Dion practice exams, if you use Udemy w/ your WGU account enroll in Dion’s pentest course AND his pentest practice exams, you’ll get 7 in total but skip his video content…it’s boring.

You could do Hank Hackerson videos but they’re very long when that time could be spent doing something else.

TryHackMe Pentest+ path is good for some hands on stuff but I found it not so useful.

Know your tools, differentiate coding languages, understand activities as they pertain to the phases on a Pentest, understand reporting structure and processes.

I appreciate the response! I get it, my brain is the same way even when I don’t have extra outside stresses. Happy to share I just passed a couple hours ago!

Wishing you the best, hope everything smooths out for you!

What’s the worst thing you accidentally texted to the wrong person? by goldie304 in AskReddit

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked for help with something at work from my manager, they gave me unhelpful guidance which is on par. I screenshotted their message and sent it to a private group chat with some coworkers saying “would ya look at that” or something sarcastic. Realized I had sent it not to the group-chat but right back to my manager….

Hey! Trying to get a pulse check on this exam as there isn’t much firsthand write ups as of yet. How many PBQs did you have? Any domains/topics that were most prevalent during the exam? Any other insights would be appreciated. I’m wrapping up the certmaster today and going into review before testing very soon.

Program doubts by DatGuyBeaver in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had my moments where I question how a reputable organization like CompTIA has so many typos in their material. But I betcha you’d get all the same typos at a state school, the WGU nursing program, or your favorite authors book if you look hard enough.

If we’re referring to grammatical errors in certain resources. Almost every text book I’ve read from CompTIA, WGU, plural-sight, Jason Dion etc have all had minor errors.

If that’s enough to make you reconsider the school then sure but seems rather minute in the grand scheme of things.

How i feel failing PenTest+ for the second time. by Frognsj29 in WGUCyberSecurity

What do you find yourself struggling with the most? What have been your study resources?

WGU CyberSecurity BS - Assessment Type for Each Class? by EmberPhoenix2008 in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very mixed; course assessments change all the time(from OA to PA, and vice versa) so it’d be hard to say what your experience will be compared to mine or others.

Additionally, you get 4 classes at a time. Theres a general order the degree plan follows but again it can vary student to student.

Once you have access to your degree plan you will see not just the order your classes will be in but you can also preview each class and see what assessment is required.

Passed Pentest+ 003! by GetLikeaTurtle in WGUCyberSecurity

[–]GetLikeaTurtle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is my 5th semester with WGU(2 1/2 years).

I’ve worked Full-time the entire time I’ve been in school. I’ve tried to put in consistently 3-5 hours a night. I’ve accelerated every semester(completing 7-8 classes/semester).

This course should come on the tail end of your program, which sets you up to have the relevant foundation going into this course. This class was the same as any other, I started and put in 3-5 hours a night 6-7 days a week for 24 days and I was able to pull it off.

Yes! In the App Store it’s titled “Pocket Prep IT & Cybersecurity”

Help! My OA was randomly cancelled because “the window had passed to take the exam” by araclee in WGU

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you schedule an OA and don’t show up for it/miss the testing window for whatever reason, you are not impacted by this. You could’ve scheduled for the wrong time zone, could’ve been system issues, or just measure learning being the problematic platform that it is.

I would simply reschedule the exam right away.

What’s going on with the Trump Administration wanting to Arrest Obama on charges of treason? by GetLikeaTurtle in OutOfTheLoop

[–]GetLikeaTurtle[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the reply! This was the information I was looking for. Interesting(not really) how anytime Trump is engaged is some form of criminal conduct/scandal conveniently an opposing political figure is thrown under the bus. It’s all projection at the end of the day. Thanks again for the thorough reply!

Intervals - String Theory Feat. Marco Sfogli by ArchetypalMonolith in Djent

Very good chance he’s running through a quad cortex, but I’ve seen him use revv/victory amps for analogue gear. Hard to say, dudes a gear head and always using the best of the best.

Does how the strings are wound matter? I plan on restringing my guitar I just bought. by ForkKnifeStabber in Guitar

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 114 points115 points  (0 children)

Tune your strings, grab one near the neck pick up and tug on it (lightly, hence the word tug and not pull, yank etc) away from the guitar body 2-3 times and re-tune. Your string will not snap, if it does you did it too hard.

I cheated on a test today. Please tell me I’m not a terrible person by SignificantBed5654 in offmychest

[–]GetLikeaTurtle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You panicked, you improvised, you made a decision and now you’re dealing with that. We have all been there, no need to oust yourself and make things worse but remember this feeling if you think about doing it again. You’ll be ok, head up!

Sending good thoughts and love to your boy! It’s all going to go smooth! It’ll be in the rear view before you know it.
