<p>How do both colleges differentiate in academics, student body, and extracurriculars (internships, clubs, events etc.)?</p>
<p>Thank You! :)</p>
<p>I was at Skyline College last summer and the academics were a lot easier than my regular community college, CCSF.</p>
<p>Interesting… Thanks man!</p>
<p>I am transferring out of Skyline college :). The teachers I have had at skyline, for the most part, want you to succeed. They recently put up a new building, and the landscape of the college looks very nice.</p>
<p>Sweet…! What would you say about the student body? Are there many clique? Also where are you transfering to? :)</p>
<p>I attended skyline for a few night classes and enjoyed it. I had good teachers, there’s lots of diversity of campus, and I saw tons of signs and posters for different clubs. didn’t feel it was clique-y at all.</p>
<p>It is also in a super convenient location and they have most pre-req classes needed for the popular majors (business, political science, psychology, sciences).</p>
<p>Go to [Welcome</a> to ASSIST](<a href=“http://www.assist.org%5DWelcome”>http://www.assist.org) and look up the articulation agreements between the UC and CSU schools for your possible major(s) and the community colleges you are considering.</p>
<p>It is generally best to attend a community college that offers courses that cover as many of the major prep courses as possible, so that you won’t have to “catch up” after transferring to UC or CSU. However, you can take courses at more than one community college before transferring (e.g. if your primary community college is missing a course, but you find another nearby that has the course).</p>
<p>Definitely go to skyline…(definitely don’t go to CSM).</p>
<p>If you have a nice car, I’d go to foothill because skyline parking lot isn’t all that safe, but as a CC it’s much better. Good/easier teachers, decent facilities, pretty small. Weather is kinda bad, but whatever that’s not all that important. Just wear layers.</p>
<p>a flaw about skyline is there lack of engineering/computer science courses. But since CSM and Ca</p>
<p>CSM is horrible. Just know that.</p>
<p>lol I find City College bad. I have only taken 2 classes at CSM.</p>
<p>Out of curiosity, why was CSM a bad experience?</p>
<p>A lot of teachers are terrible and hard. Campus is ok I guess except it’s huge for a CC. Science department is a joke. Math is alright.</p>
<p>must agree with this guy ^^^^^ math and science are a joke at CSM… if you want physics go to canada you want math go to skyline chem canda CIS i would do at CSM english CSM engineering Canada…</p>

Thank you!! By convenient do you mean there is a convenient public transportation system?</p>

I see, thanks :)</p>
<p>CSM has a great science department! If you are looking for waterdown physics or engineering classes then i recommend Canada. CSM has professors that challenge you and want to see how far you will be able to push yourself to succeed. Now to answer your question, I would personally choose Foothill over Skyline since it has agreements with more 4-year universities and it will present better opportunities than Skyline. I attended CSM and i have to say that i gave me everything i needed in order to transfer to a 4-year university.</p>
<p>It’s a community college…It shouldn’t be harder than UCB. In one of my classes out of 37 people who started, only 6 finished the class. Nobody got an A, highest grade was a B-. I don’t care what you say, but that’s not a good teacher (or a good class to take)</p>
<p>I respect your opinion. But i gotta say i feel prepared. Oh and by the way there are no + or - at CSM.</p>
<p>I took two classes at CSM. I took a differential equations class and the teacher was good. My physics teacher was incredibly hard in my opinion. I ended up dropping the class lol</p>

<p>Thanks :)</p>
<p>percentage wise I meant…that’s what I looked at. It was 82</p>
