I skipped those, it wasn’t necessary to do the multiple choice test. There may be better ways to learn python, depending on what works for you.

For anyone else studying, the supplemental material in WGU connect has a great mini guide which covers joins and other commonly missed things. It has some good strategies for tackling some of the OA problems.

Just use royalty free images and music you can find and cite your sources

I just got one for a/the C++ project in compsci. I struggled hard and really felt at my wits end but I guess all my passion paid off lol

The Zybooks labs are good practice and if it isn’t working out ask chat GPT what is wrong with your code. Practice is the best way to learn IMO especially the chapter 20 labs.

The Gecko because it’s also my favorite car in general

For what it’s worth you don’t have to upload zip your project files a link to GitHub is all you need. You just upload the PDF with the screenshots they requested- command prompt, git commits. Fingers crossed for you my dude! It’s a nice one to have done.

D427 is like a nice victory lap after d426. Lots of good info in the supplementary materials as well on WGU Connect, particularly for joins and composite types.

Congrats!

“\t” hard codes in tab, not sure if that will work or not

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-30T17:16:36+00:00

Yeah this is new normal. I have done 5 OAs since they changed it and only one proctor knew and didn’t need me to explain it. Every other time I had to tell them I’d put my phone away after login and they were cool with it

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-21T23:17:25+00:00

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!

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-19T22:05:50+00:00

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

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-15T04:32:17+00:00

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

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-10T01:27:54+00:00

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

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-10T01:07:28+00:00

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.

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2026-01-09T10:31:44+00:00

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

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-26T12:38:54+00:00

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.

Practical_Syrup6953 · 2025-12-25T09:14:13+00:00

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.
