When did you feel ready to take the OSCP?

First off, I understand that this question is open ended and there will never be a cut and dry answer for this question.

I ask it because I am curious as to what people did to prepare and when they felt ready for the OSCP. I am a Cybersecurity, student and for the past couple months I’ve dedicated myself to learning penetration testing. Eventually, I want to take my OSCP and work in the industry on pentest/red team. So, how did those who passed the OSCP prepare and when did you feel like the had the knowledge to pass?

get VIP and google up the OSCP like boxes on here and vulnhub, rip through as many as you can then go for it, i waiting till i got Pro then went and it was still challenging, but within what i expected having played on htb for a while
