<p>I'm going to De Anza which is considered one of the better CC's in California. I'm wandering if there are people here who went to several different CC's and noticed a big difference in their standards.</p>
<p>I attended Orange Coast College for a few semesters. It is considered one of the better CCs in California. I’m now attending Los Angeles City College and I have noticed a difference. The students at LACC seem a lot less motivated and the discussions are not as insightful like they were at OCC. Of course LACC does have its motivated students (me being one of them. not to brag ;]) but the majority are just there to waste time. In the end it is what you make of it. As for being easier…I must admit that LACC seems easier because the professors have been told (from what I hear) that they shouldn’t expect much of LACC students and to take it easy on them. If that’s true then it’s pretty sad.</p>
<p>I think you get what you put into it.</p>
<p>I went to three Community Colleges; Skyline, College of San Mateo, and Canada. They were all mindblowingly easy.</p>
<p>All community colleges are easy. Pretty much the same goes for the “quality” of CCs. De Anza is no exception.</p>
<p>i went to city college of san francisco and skyline college. skyline was much easier in my opinion; students seemed to care less at skyline.</p>
<p>one of my teachers at my CC (moorpark college) told me that in order to achieve full-time status as a teacher they had to consistently retain most of their students. But most of the kids at my school were such ****s it was ridiculous. I mean… just the dumbest of the dumb. It was so sad, because I had some brilliant teachers who really loved what they taught and were actually depressed that they had to dumb the subject down or literally be out of a job. It was even sadder when I realized that my really dumb teachers who wasted my time were ALL full-time status… because of course, everybody would stay in the class because they passed with little effort.</p>
<p>I did have on cool teacher who had full-time status, but he admitted that he thought most of his students were dumb *******s and he tried to make it as easy as possible so he could have a job. </p>
<p>Ahh, cc memoriessss.</p>
<p>my favorite poli sci professor at CC told me he made his courses look really hard the first week to get people who didn’t like poli sci to drop the course. It worked, I took him three times and a lot of people would drop, and the courses were better because of it.</p>
