I appreciate how you keep the WGU content and how to get a CS degree fresh and up-to-date if there are any changes (as there could be changes overtime I’d imagine and you’re always on top of it).

I’m thinking of getting WGU degree in computer science so your videos help a lot with that.

Absolutely loved this degree. I just finished after 4 months and 61 CUs.

I uploaded this video earlier, but it glitched and had to re-upload.

[adammarley]

I love the content! taking detailed notes and getting ready to enroll

Hey Alex! Not sure if you've seen, but the WGU CS program looks updated with new classes. Would be interested in your thoughts.

[shubsodhi]

Can you do a similer video for the data analytics degree. Thank you!

[jbs]

Could you please do a deep dive into the BSCC? That’s the one I’m planning on taking after I finish my Gen Ed stuff at Sophia/study

[ashleygomez]

Hi Alex, I have a question about one of the Math courses. I was looking at the spreadsheets, and for CS Calculus I, it is shown to be done on StraighterLine, but on other spreadsheets, Calculus I is shown to be done on the study. What would the difference be?

Hey Alex, while it might be a hard question to answer (subjective, dependent on many factors), what uni would you choose OVERALL for a CS degree? (I’m between WGU & TESU respectively). Let me know when u can and thanks for the vids!!! ❤

[baraklambert]

Another great deep dive! What are your thoughts about potential career opportunities that might be available to someone with a computer science degree as opposed to the software engineering degree? Initially I was leaning towards the software engineering degree (simply to avoid some of the upper level maths😅) but after seeing more in depth the classes offered in the CS degree it does seem like the career opportunities might be broader with that degree. Is that a fair assessment?

[poisongaming]

hey, i really like the idea of such a short duration degree. also its not very expensive. i have confusion on how credits work because my county's education system doesn't use credits. and my parents insist that I take traditional degree (it costs similar to this online degree) because they think its better. how should I convince them? your help will really make my future better

[Griffinx]

Are you doing all these degrees just for the channel? I’m new to your content, but it seems like you’re collecting a lot of degrees 😅
