Pre-WGU | Study.com after 1 week (skipped CySA+)

[Rofflemywaffle]

Transferring in almost 75% and will be joining WGU come November.

Just an FYI: I have 3 monitors as well and they're ok if you just cover it with a blanket or towel. Great video, the quizzes are impossible to fail and honestly most classes are as well, just take a lot of time like you said.

Biggest gripe is they take forever to grade the proctored exams and assignments, especially annoying when I need only 10 points to pass an exam.

Last tip I'll give you is just half-ass the things that you struggle on (e.g. sources), hell, even skip them. You touch on needing just 210 so don't put yourself through the grief.

I know this was made about a year ago, but for anyone stuck on the sourcing portion: find an article that already has citations in it and use the bibliography/reference section of that article to find additional articles/books/etc. Even better if that initial article is already in the format requested (in this case MLA).

Thanks broski I'm trying to get edumacated so I'm not dumb no more

[mikemahmood]

Thank you so much. It is good information for my next CySA+ class.

Try using citation machine to assist in showing you the format of the MLA requirement.

Hey Cam, love the video!

So do you not have to take the exam to get credit for the class? or do you have to get the certification in order to get the degree?

These quizzes are long wow big difference from Sophia

[yonatan]

Can you start with other course while waiting for your score?

[brovayurbee]

I may have asked this previously since I have been following you, but how many certifications are mandatory for the BA in Cybersecurity. I am so far 46 credits in BS, just like to know. Thanks.

[francispenir]

If I pass my CASP+, which is a higher certificate than CySA+, wouldn't that automatically grant me WGU "credits" for lesser certs? What about expired certs like CCNP that I had ages ago, will WGU take that into consideration? TIA

[kays]

There are programs that will site the sources in MLA format for you.

[yonatan]

If you didn't get 300 points in all the tests, but your scored 210 to pass the class, will you be graded as B or C for your score ?

[jamesbyrd]

Is it worth it to skip cysa+? It's useful for DOD, but probably not much else?

[tstone]

Are the proctor exam questions the same as the quizzes? That’ll make it easy to study

[RICKYCASH]

I was planning on just using Study for my General Ed. Been 5yrs since I was in the iT field how long would you say that’ll take to complete

After viewing your video, I was genuinely surprised by your struggle to cite your sources. This struck me as unusual because, in the United Kingdom, when you pursue higher education, citing sources is considered a fundamental skill. It is expected that you accurately reference your material in a specific manner, which is ingrained in the educational system. While I have not personally attended university in the United States, I assume that a similar practice is followed there as well. If not, it would be perplexing because it would mean that sources could be drawn from anywhere without proper acknowledgment. However, I believe that traditional universities employ a program called Turnitin to scrutinize the authenticity of sources. I apologize for my surprise when you mentioned finding that aspect challenging. It appears to me that Western Governors University (WGU) does not require source citation in writing assignments
