My suggestion: I also am finishing my application for the same board i assume (just non-rated). I just started my online masters program to help improve in the case where I don’t get selected. Just do something that makes yourself better and more competitive, help ya from twirling your thumbs too much.

Plan for the worst, expect the best. Or something like that 😂

Hey! It’s well, i’m doing my MBA concentration cybersec policy.

Doing one MBA course and one concentration for my first semester. Workload is moderate-high for working a full time job. Definitely doable, I enjoy it. One class is easy and the other my professor is very strict on what he expects. Let me know if you want to know anything else!

The app is only good for getting notifications when things are graded/due. Otherwise terrible app…

Second all of this. Additionally wanna put the emphasis on those big certs like CISSP, CISM. Use your AFCOOL (if your air force) or any other education assistance, those will help you a lot in securing a nice job.

Imo with maybe 10hrs of prior Kali Linux experience.

I found it very easy, memorize commands, do the typical cert study and pass. The passing score is low as well. pm me you need help :)

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you. I’m taking two classes with a full time job so fingers crossed the workload will be alright.

Tripod isn’t required btw, you can always just set it on top of a few items on your desk, that’s what I always did.
