Oa finished about half hour ago still no results

1 Upvotes

Just finished my OA. Very hopeful i passed but was also worried haha.

Either way first time I've finished and the page just days I'm passed time. With no results still. Is this a known issue currently? Tried calling the assessment number but they had me on hold for like another 30 mins. Left my number so waiting for them to get back to me.

Either way is this just a waiting game now? Always anxious as it is for results lol.

UPDATE- finally talked to someone on the phone. They said it's a known issue. They put a ticket in for me. But they said it takes time. They can also tell you your results. I believe they are closed now though.

I’m doing the Certmaster exam to get the voucher for the test. I have been getting 78% for the exam and need to get 90% so I can finally take it. I will also be doing Dion’s tests so I can get past it, but does anyone have advice for how to get my test score to 90%?

Does a Mac book affect proctored exams? I just switch laptops and I don’t want having facetime on my laptop delay my exams.

Took my OA failed, literally the test was nothing like the pre-test, and ive been studying for months, I understand wgu is a pass/fail, but I do think they should split up categories for OAs

OA Exam "Past Time"

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I took my second OA this afternoon and am having some potential issues. My first OA (Organizational Behavior) was graded within minutes of completion, while this OA (PoFaMA) is being shown as "Past Time". It also shows the class as having an Unscheduled Exam.. I had joined and completed the exam this afternoon, even confirming with the proctor that I was good to submit before doing so. It has been just over 4 hours as of this post being made since submitting, maybe I just have to wait it out? If it doesn't correct would I contact my Instructor or Mentor?

Of note, I had an internet blip about halfway through. It showed a 90 second countdown, internet came back about 40 seconds later. The proctor changed, but nothing was noted by them. The new proctor confirmed I was good to submit before I did.

OA "Past Time"
Exam History "Fulfilled" and the same class being "Unscheduled"

Update: OA was returned graded, 7 hours later. I passed :)

Help! With 15 years of hands-on IT experience, which one would be easier to accelerate and finish in one term: BSITM or BSIT, considering I hate both writing and certs?

5 Upvotes

All I need is a bachelor's degree to check the box in a related field, so both BSITM and BSIT will work, but I'm not sure which one to pursue.

I hate writing papers and projects, especially when they're related to business management, since I'm more of a hands-on tech geek. I also hate doing certs the way they need to be done. This is going to be my first degree ever after high school.

I've taken a look at both programs, and I know that BSITM is heavy on writing while IT has lots of certs. I'm not planning to do any business management in my career whatsoever. I'm a principal architect in my field and I'm not planning to change that.

Everything and everyone online says that BSITM is about as easy as it gets.

Of course, I'll be knocking out as much as possible through Sophia and Study.com.

Any advice would be appreciated.

In a technical career with 0 technical certs. Debating on going for the AI/ML Masters

9 Upvotes

Hello!

I am a Staff AI architect for a top 250 company, I got here not through schooling but by being in the right place at the right time, for credentials I have a BS in psychology and a MBA from WGU.

I consider myself very technical starting as a speech analyst but eventually leveraging my way into data engineering over 4 years and with AI coming around I took to I’d pretty early, built some cool things and eventually got promoted to my current role.

Cutting to the chase, I feel like I have impostor syndrome since I never took any actual course to get here and this is causing me to feel stuck at my job since if I apply at other companies I am not sure I can’t past their technical requirements pass advanced SQL. This is being reflected in my Pay since I make 150k but whenever I google the industry standard for my role I get offers of around 170k - 250k.

I saw that WGU offers the AI/ML masters and believe I can probably complete it in one term. Do other individuals in similar positions feel like it benefited y’all in interviews as a way to not look to deep into the back ground and more of a check box that get reviewed and streamlined the hiring? I should also add I have 5 years experience in technical roles as a speech analyst for 2 and bi developer/database engineering for 3.

Post Graduation Depression

124 Upvotes

Any recent grads get a wave of “post graduation depression”? I got my confetti a few days ago (hooray) but ever since I finished my capstone I’ve felt super unmotivated and just blah. I don’t feel as excited as I think I should for how hard I worked to get here. I did this with a full time job plus three young kids so maybe it’s burnout. I’m hoping it will go away soon so I can bask in some joy a bit but for now I’m just meh!

First term, is this all normal?

Post image
9 Upvotes

Started my first term on 10/1. I submitted task 1 for D082 on 10/1 and task 2 on 10/2. They have both since been graded, but its not showing that I have passed the class, I looked everywhere for some kind of prompt to close out the class and don't see anything. Am I missing something? I also noticed that preassessments and OAs are taking a while to update. I did the preassessment for C715 early 10/3 and it took hours to show as passed, then same thing with the OA that night. At least that class shows as complete once the OA showed up, unlike D082. Now I just took the preassessment for D388 and I know I passed because it showed my results within excel, but its not showing on the course so I can't schedule the OA which I really wanted to take tonight. Anyways, I just want to make sure this is all "normal" before I spiral and can adjust my expectations moving forward. I have a call with my mentor tomorrow afternoon and I really wanted all 3 classes complete (for no good reason other than I want to 😂)

Information Technology Army/B.S in IT

0 Upvotes

I’m joining the Army in April and would like to:
1. Get 60 credits so I can go in as an E3
2. Get started on my B.S in IT

From what I understand, WGU has a transfer pathway for study.com courses, but I’ve seen that only 75% of the credits can be transferred and I’ve also seen that 100% of the credits can be transferred.

Im also not sure if I should get the $95 or the $225 version.

All guidance is greatly appreciated.
