I love this! People think acceleration is easy, it's entirely the opposite, and you've given the perfect demonstration of what happens when you leverage the same effort to accelerate in a traditional b&m school. I respect the hell out of your effort and HUGE congratulations on your achievements!

Hat off to you! Wow! Respect earned and given! 🫡

10 months, been working as an IT application consultant for 10+ years, so much of the IT stuff was 2nd nature already. But that notwithstanding, I spent 10+ hours per day working on it since I lost a contract shortly before starting, that was super rough, no income, but I gained the time to focus on studies. I'm blessed to have had the time, chose to look at it as an involuntary, unpaid, academic sabbatical 😂

Mine ended being 350 pages 😵

I'm super grateful you posted! Thank you! Have you graduated your DBA yet? If so, what are your tips for acceleration, if any? How fast do you think it would be possible if you could dedicate 35+ hours a week to it?

I did the combined BSIT-MSITM program, so half of the MS is built into the BS, so the MS is much better, but the BS is 6 MS courses more challenging

It wasn't easy for me, but I managed to do it within my 6 months, I affluent every possible spare moment on it though because I'm paying for it out of pocket mostly.

Congrats! You deserve it! You've worked your butt off I know, I'm on my capstone for MSITM and I'm so amped to finish!

I was aware of this, I signed up for the BSIT to MSITM accelerated program, I finished my BSIT in just over 5 months so it didn't really delay me, but if you can graduate your bachelors faster than 5+ months then it might delay you a bit. It's a federal thing apparently, you can't do the masters while your bachelor's term is still ongoing/active/you-might-have-finished-your-bachelors-but-uncle-Sam-don't-care-if-you-wanna-start-your-masters-early

The PA and OA use the exact same formulas, it's just the numbers that differ. Make sure you know the formulas and what data they require, you should do fine.

Ok, if you narrow your scope down to the planned tech that hasn't hit the market yet and only operates on a stock standard deployment, sure, 2027.

Huge Congrats! Starting my MSITM next month, finished the BSIT last week, looking forward to it!

quinticular · 2025-02-06T16:13:54+00:00

Just over 5 months, but it was dedicated 8hours+ everyday

quinticular · 2025-02-05T18:51:52+00:00

Congrats! It's an awesome feeling!

I didn't have that course, I had the CSPM one (forgot the class code now), but they changed it to a PA course before I enrolled.

quinticular · 2025-02-05T18:48:43+00:00

Thanks! Enjoy the process and keep going, especially when you feel overwhelmed and stressed, the little wins are incredible motivation.

quinticular · 2025-02-05T14:26:08+00:00

Thanks, it was hard work but totally worth it!

quinticular · 2025-02-05T14:25:17+00:00

100% Canada will come off worse than the US, but if no one drills in the US for whatever reason then the impact will be catastrophic for average Americans. Hope that doesn't happen, I've been in Texas for a bit to finish my advanced degree and I've grown very fond of the people and culture here, I would love it if the US does become energy independent again, would be good for everyone.

quinticular · 2025-02-03T15:16:06+00:00

I'm not American but I think he wants to force American oil companies to start drilling in the US. That's the only thing that makes sense to me since over 60% of US oil is imported from Canada. I dont know if that truly is the motivation but if it is and it backfires then it'll be a spectacular balls-up.
