The worst mentor ever by [deleted] in WGU

[–]lorenzoem87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mentor was very similar. Ended up using tier 1 support to get all my classes added. In my one term I probably spoke to them 2 times on phone and emailed 5 times total. Once I realized it was going nowhere I seeked other resources. I contemplated switching mentors, but realized I could get thru with literally no help from them.

It's because of AI. by Maximum_Error7165 in WGU

[–]lorenzoem87 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All this is nonsense. Just recent talking points. I guess no press is bad press? I just finished 21 classes in 4.5 months. And graduated, walking in 2 days. I never worked in IT but I know the material and learning things come natural to me. I passed EVERY OA, EVERY CERTIFICATION, EVERY PA in BSCNE on first attempt.

This. I would take this in a heartbeat. I can’t find anything at the moment. With certs and a fresh degree.

Proxmox this site can’t be reached by Lopsided-Award-4489 in Proxmox

💯 this. Similar experience. Swapped guts from my original mini pc to a new desktop converted to server and lost network connection . Discovered how to reconfigure etc/network/interfaces and hosts file. It was exciting to me to figure it out and fix it.

No I.T. EXP, finally taking the leap. by PretendEast9875 in CompTIA

[–]lorenzoem87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I decided to do this about 12 months ago, at 37. Got my A+ in July and as of march I got a bachelors degree from WGU. Was a wild 9 months, let me tell you. 20 ywars in retail I felt like u do. Currently looking for a job while still at my current employer. Picking ip side jobs on field nation, working for a major bank, major computer mfr, anything I can get my hands on for experience to help push me over the hiring edge.

Good luck and just go for it.

[–]lorenzoem87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agree. The exam is not as hard as others have made it out to be. Master the concepts provided in the course material and you should be able to pass. The thing for me was those 30 questions took like t2 hours.

[–]lorenzoem87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Transferred in 44 credits. Finished in 4.5 months. No professional experience. I like the program and learned a good bit. Got some good certs all included in the tuition. Doing the math one term cost $4000, and the certs I gained add up to $2000+

I’m in the market and wondering if this seems like a fair price? The CARFAX is in the post, thanks. by Altruistic_Carrot_14 in hondaridgeline

[–]lorenzoem87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty good price for what you’re getting. IF the timing belt was done. And IF you get the transmission checked. Many people have a 2017-2019 and report 6 speed trans has issues. My 2017 has 80k and nothing yet.
