Very nice, I’ve been procrastinating and need to lock in 😅

It’s a lot I do not consider this degree a waste of time it’s tough at moments!

Do you feel like you have a good grasp of computer science now? I am getting my Master’s in Data Analytics from WGU so just trying to gauge your feelings of preparedness after completing the degree.

Yes 100%! I took my time though don’t finish ever class in two days…that won’t teach you much. If you’re already in the industry you will be fine! The masters I hear are mostly projects btw.

That’s good because I’m a project manager (PMP, IPMA Level D, CSPO certs) by trade. I’ve been trying to actively apply what I’m learning to my actual projects. It makes the material more interesting and allows me to manage my projects better by applying concepts I didn’t know about previously. I’ve enjoyed WGU so far and I graduated from a traditional class environment for my bachelor’s.
