Hey guys, I work overseas a lot and don't get to play much, so I'm still very much a rookie despite my character age and sp count. I come home in October and intend to join a pvp focused corp, so I have 3 months to tune up my skills. I have lived in WHs before and have a scan/support alt, so I want this character to be completely combat focused. What skills should I prioritize and raise up in the 3 months I got? How about long term suggestions? I have some attribute remaps available, so let me know if I should use one of those as well. Thanks in advance!

I see you are training drones, and tbh, that's what I would recommend. Somewhere between 2-3 million SP is what I remember as 'good' drone skills.

Not sure that I would remap for those 2 mil sp. Hopefully you are training at over 2000 sp/m and just gut it out for a month.

Drone Interfacing V
Nav V
Sharpshooting V
Ewar IV
Durability IV
Combat V
Scout V
Minmatar Spec IV
Gallente Spec IV

Still leaves you over a month (from your 3 months) to train.

I like long skills while I am afk. Things like:
Cruiser V
BC V
BS V
Large Gun V

Pick a ship that YOU think is cool, and focus on making it perfect.
If it's a gunship, finish off your gunnery support skills all V
Tengu, do the missile supports and sub-systems.

Might want to look at training your armor/shield compensation skills.

I would say getting the armor comps to IV is a must since most armor tanks will make use of EANMs. Training the shield comps is more optional since a shield tank for PvP will most likely be using active hardeners. However, they can give you a little buffer if your capped out by being nueted or just mismanaging your cap.
