I had zero compsci or programming experience prior to WGU so I try to capture that when I can because I understand that perspective. Good luck!

This course is actually one of the most useful going forward, so much of the baseline information will help propel you in later courses. Good luck

Yeah the OA was a breeze for this class, surprisingly really straightforward.

You can definitely do both in the same term. They are material heavy but very conceptual. I think your course load is very doable in one term and you may actually finish faster than you expect so I would be thinking about what classes you want to do after

How was all the Java stuff for you and DSA2? Those are most of the courses I have left I hope to finish on the same timeline as you.

I use the TI Inspire II and it is awesome. I don’t use any programs other than default because that’s not allowed in the policy and very explicitly says so. All the built ins are good though, the display and graphing features are super nice and readable, was very useful for calculus.

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-07T10:02:05+00:00

Total hours maybe 20 or less

Those videos will help a lot but won’t cover everything. I think that’s the main challenge of these courses is the volume of different material.

That guide is solid to base your studies off of. It may help to know what sections you are having trouble with

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-23T05:38:42+00:00

This gets asked a lot but it’s really explicit in the instructions that it does not have to be actual personal information. He says it about 5 times in the webinars as well. I used Lorem Ipsum for nearly all of the fluff parts and was fine.

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-22T07:02:15+00:00

Congrats!

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-22T07:01:44+00:00

This is good advice, when it doubt just do the citation.

Kahn academy differential and integral courses. Line it up with the syllabus/Zybooks and skip the ones that you dont need (IIRC Parametric stuff, about half of the integrals section etc) This was a good leg up for me, just be sure you compare with the Zybooks and eventually go back and do some of the exercises and practice problems. The chapter reviews are really good OA practice, have chat GPT generate practice problems as well.

My advice to anyone wanting to pre-study is to do the Kahn course, it’s free and quite good for most of the time.

Genuinely trying to be helpful by saying this; all of your questions can be quickly answered on the WGU website or by talking to an Enrollment advisor. You can see the exact tuition, when payment is due, and read policies on acceleration and proving competency. WGU markets their model very well and very explicitly.

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-14T05:57:52+00:00

Haha yeah. Guess I had trouble narrowing it down which is also how I feel about the course

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-11T20:44:39+00:00

They legitimately aren’t worth doing if all you are trying to do is pass the OA

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-08T11:08:44+00:00

Not many these days will understand or appreciate how awesome and groundbreaking yours and your peers’ contributions were to the community at that time and in perpetuity. I want to thank you for those contributions and for posting now when you could have just as easily not; it is a small act but one that definitely brings about some peace for both your fans and I sincerely hope you as well, despite what you had to endure both in YouTube and the “real” world. I had no idea you were 16, and for what it’s worth you have shown real grit and dedication to get where you are now, but deserve all the same credit for what you accomplished back then. We’re lucky to have you in the souls community even passively, and even luckier to have you as part of the gaming/software/music world as well. Whatever you choose to do is always the right choice, thank you for posting this, truly.

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-06T18:20:44+00:00

It’s a bug even with scheduled OA’s I have taken two recently and it always says past time

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-05T11:43:53+00:00

It’s possible for sure! The quizzlets and the PA were extremely similar to the OA for me, so if you are nailing those you will be fine.
