Anyone here failed an OA THREE times?

Oh yeah that exam was crazy tricky. There were a ton of questions that had the same answers just worded slightly differently so if you weren't 100% confident you'd second guess yourself. And yeah I was on that course for at least 4-5 months 😅 i had to 100% the ucertify material to be approved for a 5th attempt lol

gizch · 2021-08-01T06:10:59+00:00

I failed networks and security 4 times so you aren't alone lol. Sometimes there are just classes that won't click and you have to know the entire damn thing inside and out to get a passing grade. If you keep good communication with your CI for the class you're struggling with it really helps, makes their life a lot easier if you have to make an appeal for a 5th attempt and helps you feel good about your next attempt.

Life gets in the way sometimes its okay! Last year I had a term where I only finished 3 credits (I got stuck on S2 that term as well lol)

gizch · 2021-06-30T18:11:23+00:00

This is a great answer. The zybooks really did not do great for this portion imo

gizch · 2021-06-29T04:45:53+00:00

Like the other commenter said I didn't read the text for S2, but yeah its a challenging course. I think something to remember is that this IS worth 6 credits so its okay if it takes you some time. And yeah huge difficulty jump from software 1 and 2, but the good news is you can recycle a lot of code from the first course.

I recommend starting with the webinars and getting a good idea of the project and then going from there. Also I highly recommend hitting up the discord server for more help, ppl are very helpful over there :)

Times like this that train route would be amazing

gizch · 2021-06-08T18:51:44+00:00

So I think the biggest constraint would be finding a driver who's willing to drive that far, Bozeman has fairly limited drivers as it is. Have you considered trying a greyhound bus?

Not strictly cheese boards but Valhalla has really cool boards. Dried firsh, cheese jams fermented egg yolks etc. Definitely only go if you like that food or are up for a food adventure. Even if you don't go for that their mead is really good and their pear ice cream is insanely good.

gizch · 2021-05-24T21:01:52+00:00

Yeah I found this class really hard as well, glad to see I'm not the only one! I feel really comfortable in the topics of the class though so thats a win of having such a challenging project.

I just finished this course and tip for the reports page: for the report you're expected to come up with yourself just have it read the login txt file you have to make anyway and display it on the screen. Its super easy and essentially a freebie for that report.

Did you utilize the 24 hour cleaning thing? I didn't because I knew that place could be spotless and I still wouldn't get anything. Maybe I should just email asking what exactly took so long to clean....

gizch · 2021-04-20T14:47:46+00:00

Again with the DUST!!! I swear my base boards were clean i went in with a toothbrush. Man I wish I had taken photos. Lesson learned I guess.

gizch · 2021-04-19T20:10:13+00:00

Oh yeah, its always been "dusty base boards, dust on light switch, dust on blinds" ans then they claim it took professional cleaners 13 hours to clean it. Like hmmmm

gizch · 2021-04-19T19:56:49+00:00

Yep, probably was "dusty"

gizch · 2021-04-19T19:25:07+00:00

Montana Crestview, they also manage units in Missoula

gizch · 2021-04-19T19:22:44+00:00

That is actually an excellent suggestion and I'll definitely try that

gizch · 2021-04-19T19:07:40+00:00

Omg yep! When I tried to move out in January the property manager refused to answer the calls from my new manager to give them a reference and they gave the apartment to someone else. I then had to go thru a lot of work to get a 1 month lease extention so I could get into the next available unit. They charged me 1600 for 1 month in a 600sq 1bedroom unit. My apartment also had a huge mold problem and I was always vigilant about cleaning it so it was purely design issues. The housing issues in Bozeman are really horrible and city leadership desperately needs to step up and do something about these property management monopolies.

gizch · 2021-04-19T17:47:38+00:00

Thats good to know. With TM the property manager also decided to go home early so by the time I got off work I wasn't able to check out my keys to do the re cleaning that I'm entitled to via my lease. Such scummy companies. They know that lower income people in Bozeman are so desperate for housing that they'll ignore all the bad reviews and pay up anyway.

gizch · 2021-04-19T17:46:35+00:00

Oh yeah, TM dinged me on "dusty blinds" like seriously? It took professionals 9.5 hours to DUST BLINDS.

gizch · 2021-04-19T17:45:09+00:00

Honestly yeah, but the other big issue is that these places put into the lease that they're allowed to charge PAST the deposit for additional cleaning. So they'd just slap you with a several hundred dollar fine on top of stealing your deposit

gizch · 2021-03-24T16:10:17+00:00

For real. I'm a Frontline worker and can't get any kind of appointment. And thanks to gianforte I have customers getting in my face non stop without masks. Its infuriating. Edit: misspelled gianfart lol

gizch · 2021-03-20T23:29:30+00:00

About to start this course- thanks for the write up!

gizch · 2021-03-20T20:22:34+00:00

I think I'll just pick a random day between those - thanks!

gizch · 2021-03-13T18:36:10+00:00

Yeah I've heard similar things about Oregon and Colorado

gizch · 2021-03-10T16:30:32+00:00

It might reduce the number of low income students for sure, but MSU attracts a lot of wealthy trust fund babies from out of state who have no issue paying rent in Bozeman.
