<p>What do you guys think? Also, if you happen to have a lower gpa, don't consider CC the only option due to admissions. The truth is that there are many well-renowned universities that are available to offer you admission. For example, even with my GPA I managed to get into a university with an engineering program ranked in the top 50 of the nation; so don't be discouraged.</p>
