I'm so sick of this bullshit. All you guys are doing is cheapening the apparent value of the degree you just got.

I had a zoom-in issue on my Sec+ exam too! It was crazy, I could tell with both pbq's that something was wrong... I was at a test center and luckily I had 2 nice ladies who quickly fixed the issue, but I was stressing as the time was still counting down. Punched a bunch of random answers last second just to get something in, and passed with 763. Definitely would've failed if not for speaking up about the problem.

Congratulations Austin, all your effort had paid off. Your story is pretty inspirational. Thank you for sharing!

WGU getting that extra rep. Can you do a video on how the bachelors in cyber from WGU has changed your life. Planning on the MSCSIA next, when?

Rather find the guy telling me how to get 10 job offers in 5 months 😅😅😅😅

I think doing the hands on portion after obtaining the cert is also fine. I use these theocratical multiple choice certs as the knowledge I need to understand the hands on portion afterwards. At the end of the day, just the cert alone won’t get you the job, you have to prove to the employer you have practical hands on skills to do the job, so what I’m saying is you have to eventually get hands on experience regardless.

I was thinking of doing certs on my own then going back to school and using those to check off the degree classes. Does that sound like a good idea or would it be better to enroll at WGU first and get vouchers from their classes?

Thanks Austin. Great to hear the compliments on THM. I've been paying for a sub for a while, but have to dig in more and get my legs under me. Thanks!!!

I am enrolled in this course im a very quick learner and to give perspective to this I started July 2024. I have 3 courses done . I have already imported 39% completion in gen ed credits so at the rate I’m going at I should be able to finish in exactly 6 months . With that being said the title of this is kind if misleading. Just because he brought in 0 credits doesn’t mean he’s not experienced . Playing around on tryhack me for months and having a job in IT will do wonders for you . If your fresh don’t expect to zoom thru the course in 6 months if your bringing in 0 credits . This guy is an either a lot more experienced in IT then he’s saying he is or he’s just just plain capping . To finish the whole course with gen Eds and 0 transferred credits with 0 exp in IT. No chance you’ll finish in 6 months lol.

this is encouraging for me. I transfered credits from another school and only have 10 courses to completed BSCSIA with WGU. starting in nov,2024.

ty :)

Right on man! I start my Software Engineering program in August. My wife is my biggest supporter as well. Happy for you and the impact the degree has made on your life. Thanks for sharing.

I did my degree finally at 55 years old...took 40 classes in 10 months. My ability to remember things and cram is not as good as when I was 20! Congrats to everyone pushing themselves!

How were you able to pass the general education courses if you had no previous college courses to transfer? (Health, American Politics, Prob & Stat, Algebra, Natural Science Lab, etc). You were able to take those entire college courses in just a few days each?

I have an autistic child toddler and I work full time I am almost done with accounting in 2 years. I wouldnt have been able to do school without WGU model. WGU will never know how much it saved our lives

What advice do you have for someone who has 0% knowledge on I.T or cyber in general ?

Full time job, part time job, 3 kids, moved, ZERO credit hours and completed a 4 year in 6 months…. Mannnnnnn…. Insanely hard to believe

So much respect for you Austin! This is so motivating. Gives me no excuses lol. Wishing you and your family the best , God bless.

Well done! 🐒

This is such a big motivation for me, started in January and this is a reminder that I have no excuses, back to the grind! But congrats to you man, you did it!

Wow God is Great hopefully I can do the same 🙏🏿

Yeah, but did you learn anything.

Insanely inspirational man. I’m a senior in HS, have 65 credits to transfer over now after 4 months of work, I will complete the BSSWE degree in one term, no excuses.

Looks like you learned Comptia is full of small things to take advantage of more retakes. It's pretty widely known that Comptia is scummy like that.

Very encouraging bro keep up the good work, career wise and with your family.

similar to crunch hmmm.. thnx for share!

Hi Austin, I am thinking to go for cybersecurity with WGU. How can I get in touch with you, I have few questions regarding about programs?

Let’s go this is motivating 🎉

whats your linkedin?

Thanks

I'd be interested to know how the job market has been since obtaining your degree because what I'm seeing is that it's pretty bad. Thanks for the video!

Why are you referring to the certs as degrees? I am not hating, I am in cyber security too. Just curious.

Your a freaking beast Austin congrats!! This is really inspirational .

Based educated man providing for his family. Here for it.

When it comes to study for your objective assessment? What’s your approach? What study strategy did you use?

Can you tutor me??

3 ? Lucky.. I have 5 PBQs both attempts

Hey Austin! Recently started the Associated in Cyber and IA...would you be willing to mentor me? Seems like you had a pretty good grip on this stuff!

Hi Austin, Just discovered your channel! This video was amazing!!! Thank you so much for a very detailed explanation of your experience. I will be starting at WGU in April after pushing back 1 month so i can complete my gen-eds at sophia. Honestly, I had been searching for people who did their degree without transfer credits and i found you! Also, congratulations on starting your own cybersecurity company! New subscriber!

your background is so creepy

I'ma try what this guy is saying. I'm 7 minutes into the video... But everything in my body is calling 🧢 🧢🧢 on this one...

Not being able to see the full question happened to me as well on my A+ exam, I think it has something to do with the screen size as I was doing this on my laptop

Man that’s the wildest exam story I’ve ever heard hahaha. Glad there was a happy ending

Two terms sounds better for me

Could you give your methodology?

I am a cybersecurity analyst with no degree. I transferred about 25% of the program. Started Jan 2nd 2024. My goal is June but if I have to go to December oh well

hi there

So you can actually speed run through the BS Cybersecurity program? With no limitations?
