<p>Is SMC a really hard college to get good grades (>3.3) in?</p>
<p>No, not at all. Just do your work.</p>
<p>I don't think you should choose a college based on how easy it seems, though.</p>
<p>go to east los angeles college if you want something easy</p>
<p>I would say it depends less on the college and more on what classes you take. My classes were easy there. Personally I don't like the faculty or admin staff at SMC so I try not to take classes there but there are a lot of other people on this board that like it.</p>
<p>no, not too difficult if you research the teachers a bit.
some are really horrible, others are disorganized or have little class control and spend most of the period telling people to shut up or stop texting, lol.
keep in mind, there are a lot of issues with the school including classes filling quickly and the parking situation (ugh!). Overall, the campus is one of the best in LAC.</p>
<p>Oh, there were a few people in my classes who also attended southwest and west l.a. I understand they would take classes at those schools if all the good SMC instructors were taken for a particular class.</p>
<p>science: yes
non science: No</p>
<p>If you want easy go to Compton Community College (I believe things were so bad they have or will lose their accreditation sp? )</p>
<p>hey, you can major in gang banging and drugdealin' in Comptonizzle. dont even have to go to college, you'll make so much $$$ slangin'.</p>
<p>haha, you can slang at any college.</p>
<p>is the campus and stuff nice?</p>
<p>SMC is a very nice campus, and it's in a great area. </p>
<p>I dunno that I'd go from Ojai though...</p>
<p>why not from ojai?</p>
<p>where the heck is ojai? thats the coolest city name since xxyyzz.</p>
<p>Why commute that far for a CC? :confused:</p>
<p>thats what i thought too. but there are crazy people that i met at smc who commute like 40 miles while they have 3-4 ccc closer to them. they say they like the expirienced staff who taught at top 4 year schools.</p>
<p>to be honest, i'd never commute.</p>
<p>Ojai is near Santa Barbara.
Very nice, small town.</p>
<p>If it's near Santa Barbara, one might as go to SBCC!</p>
