<p>Well most of it sucks... </p>
<p>But that fact that I am getting credit for what I am doing is amazing. </p>
<p>If you have the option ti knock out credit at a CC over the summer do it. It's crazy easy if you are coming from a university where you are used to doing work</p>
<p>Yeah I’m taking a Physics class right now so I don’t have to take it at my regular college. It’s a complete joke but the credit still transfers. Win/win.</p>
<p>Same here. Why take Physics 240 at Umich and have to work win I can coast through it at a CC</p>
<p>Hmmm, not really a win-win if you’re a science major…what about actually learning? For me, easy classes are more frustrating than hard ones because I sit there every day knowing I’m paying for a complete waste of time. If you really want to learn, pay less money, and still get credit, self-study and take a CLEP or AP test.</p>
<p>Too late for APs, plus this is easier. Plus I took this AP class my senior year and due to numerous reasons I didn’t get credit.</p>
<p>You know what else is easy? Onlince classes from CC!</p>
<p>Yeah I’m taking a circuits class at a local state university this summer. I had to withdraw from it at Vandy; I’m making a 97 here. Best decision ever.</p>
<p>Exam 1 94/90</p>
<p>Exam 2 94/90</p>
<p>GO COMMUNITY COLLEGE GO!</p>
<p>My bad, grading error</p>
<p>98/90</p>
<p>Everyone should take CC classes!</p>

<p>Hopefully you guys don’t have to understand physics or circuits for your major. If you do have to understand these things, then you are just making things harder for your later classes . . .</p>
<p>I find community college to be awesome because you can just get all the core classes required for graduation out of the way for a much cheaper price so that when you get to university, all you need to do is focus on classes pertaining to your major.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for me the CCC I went to wasn’t like that but then again I actually learned stuff. </p>

<p>I’m thinking of taking a public speaking class soon, but I don’t qualify for in-state tuition for another couple of years :(</p>
<p>It all depends on your community college and professor as well.</p>
<p>I’ve taken some classes here that are killer and some that just require you to show up…</p>
<p>I am learning stuff. I took AP E&M in high school but didn’t get a 5. This class is just really easy on exams. Labs are good, notes are iffy, I didn’t buy the book. I don’t think i’ll need to know too much of this anyways. Either way, I can get credit here for little work or put in a lot of work to get an A at umich.</p>
<p>My community college was actually a great school so I didn’t mind being there at all, and the super cheap tuition was nice too. I couldn’t see the sense of paying all that money just to take English, history, math, etc. Once I transfered freshmen I knew were complaining about how ridiculous this school’s general education classes were, and I was very happy that I didn’t have to deal with them! (mainly paying for them, lol)</p>
<p>Not to mention the CC actually had a really good program for my major. I got to get a lot of real-world experience in my freshman year, and I feel like I really benefited from getting all that experience so early in my college career. Plus I was working almost full-time hours while going to school full-time. It made me feel much more like an adult and independent than dorm life ever did. I learned a lot about responsibility in those two years, and it’s definitely not something I regret. </p>
<p>For me the biggest issue with college has been about the money, since I’m the one paying for school. I wasn’t going to pretend like I could afford the 4-year tuition and dorm price so I’ve been trying to do school as cheaply as possible. At the end of the day you do actually have to pay back all those loans, and for me taking those classes at an inexpensive community college beats paying an extra $20K in loans any day.</p>

</p>
<p>Nope, I’m a MechE so circuits has little to no bearing on my further aspirations, it’s just a required class I have to take either way. Plus I am learning stuff, it just moves at a much, much slower pace than I’m used to at Vanderbilt.</p>
