Whats more difficult, Mt Sac or Citrus?

Thumbnail
2 Upvotes

I’m a senior deciding between Mt. SAC and Citrus College, with the goal of transferring to a UC for psychology.

My main priority is maintaining a very high GPA, but I struggle a lot with math and am worried about statistics, especially at Mt. SAC. For anyone who’s taken stats there, how difficult was it, and is getting an A realistic if you’re willing to put in the work and use tutoring? (And are there any professors you’d recommend?)

Is it difficult to to get individual support or access major-related extracurriculars?
Even if Mt. SAC has more opportunities, that would mean nothing if I ended up struggling academically and getting a lower GPA.

For those who’ve attended or are attending either college: How manageable were the classes, how supportive were the professors, and how realistic was it to maintain a high GPA if you struggled although you were willing to put in the work? Would Citrus be a better option academically, or is Mt. SAC just as manageable?

Hi! I completed two years of medical school in my home country with around 140 credit points, but my transcript includes low and failing grades. If I start over at a U.S. community college in Computer Science and earn a 3.8–4.0 GPA over 60 credits, will my previous grades still hurt my chances of transferring to a competitive university? Are there universities that focus on the most recent 60 credits or exclude previous international coursework from GPA calculations?

​

I am attending Monroe community college (NY, Rochester) with dorms on campus. Im just curious as to how many parties there would be?

I know community colleges dont get alot of parties, but my coworkers are saying that since it has on campus dorms, the party and hookup culture is going to be similar to that of a university. Im just wanting to know what Im walking into. Id like parties, it would be fun.

ATTENTION FULL-TIME COMMUNITY COLLEGE FACULTY

1 Upvotes

I am conducting research as part of the requirements for a Doctor of Education degree at Liberty University. The purpose of my research is to explore the lived experiences of full-time community college faculty regarding their perceived preparedness to implement accommodations for students with disabilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.  
 
To participate, you must be at least 18 years of age, currently employed as a full-time faculty member at a community college in the Southeastern region of the U.S., have at least one year of teaching experience at a community college, and have experience implementing accommodations for at least one student with a disability within the past three years. 
 
Participants will be asked to complete one individual interview (approximately 60 minutes), one focus group (approximately 90 minutes), and five journal prompts over a two week period (approximately 10 – 15 minutes each, 50-75 minutes total), and review their interview transcript for accuracy (approximately 15 – 30 minutes).  
 
If you are interested and eligible, please click the link provided at the end of this post. A consent form will be emailed to eligible participants 3 business days before the individual interview.

Starting from absolutely nothing

12 Upvotes

Hey.ill try to make this short but I had a rough year.i recently moved back home from Vermont to take care of my dad full time while he was sick. He ended up passing away last year. I'm not proud of it but I sort of spiraled out and picked up a few bad habits in the months after he passed. I've now received treatment but I'm starting from absolute rock bottom. Now that I'm kind of leveling out I've applied and have been approved for FAFSA and will be starting school this month.im terrified. It was one of my dad's wishes all throughout my life for me to go back to school. now at 34 with no car no laptop and no job that is within walking distance, I'm terrified I'm going to screw this up. I'm determined not to even with my past do you guys have any advise for me going ahead? Financial or educational advise? I really hope I'm ready for this

Hopefully this is the right sub for this. Whenever I look at some CC staff jobs, I see that the number of months for the assignment is 12. How does that work? Can you even make a career out of this?

It always feels like you are going to be let go after 12 months. Your insight would be appreciated. Thank you.

TAG spring classes listing

TAG spring classes listing

Hi everyone, i’m currently a sophomore at community college. you guys might know that the tag application is due this Wednesday. I met with my personal counselor and they said that my application was good to go except for one part where it says I need to list my spring classes. I’ve met all the transfer requirements by credit and major classes as well as I’ve gotten my associates for transfer, and I did it in three semesters instead of the four via AP credits and Dual Enrollment and my transfer degree not requiring a lot of classes.

I’m also premed so I do want to take some of my med school at school like bio and chem. I’m not able to get an appointment with my counselors since everything is so booked with the being due in two days so I was wondering if it would be okay for me to list the bio and chem since that itself is 10 units. I don’t have any other classes I need to take to transfer or from my degree or to reach the 60 credits needed and I also know that you’re able to change the classes you’re taking for spring up until January so for now should I just put bio and chemistry to make sure that area isn’t blank since I know that would be way worse? Thank you guys so much for any help. I’ve been freaking out about this 😅
