switching community colleges

<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I'm stuck on deciding if I should switch from one community college to another. I currently attend City College of San Francisco and have been struggling to pass my classes while my friends at Skyline and San Mateo Community College are breezing through their courses and getting accepted into prestigious UC's. I have been told that the physics and calculus/linear algebra courses are much easier at Skyline compared to CCSF. I have compared all their tests to mine and my tests compared to theirs was so much harder that it was ridiculous. I have passed all these courses and am ready to transfer in another year, but I currently have a cumulative GPA of 2.88 and am very bummed about it. I know you guys are probably about to tell me to speak with my school counselors, but every counselor that I talk to points me in a different direction, and I have 2 W's on my transcript somewhat because of them. A counselor told me to take Psychology and Asian American Studies and after the withdrawal date, 3 other counselors recommended that I withdraw from them if I have any doubts of getting an A. Anyways, if I do decide to switch over to Skyline or San Mateo Community College, I have no doubt that I can get A's in my classes since this will all be a repeat, but would my transcript follow me over there or would I have a clean slate? I understand that I would be much better prepared than my friends, but what's the point of being prepared if I can't even get into the colleges that I'm striving for? Is it possible to transfer only certain classes, presumably the ones I've aced, while leaving the others out? What do you guys think of it all? Thanks and sorry for the "life-story length" post, but I'm stressed out of my mind and feel that I've run out of people to ask for help.</p>

<p>You should ask this question on the Transfer Forum. Lots of the folks there are in the California system and chances are someone will be able to advise you.</p>
