it's been kind of interesting taking two quarters of community college classes after going through university a few years ago. in my recent classes, class sizes have been much smaller, student demographics are much wider, and instruction was more personal and hands on. way cheaper too.

however, i am finishing an online intro to web development class (not my interest anyways) and holy shit i can't believe i am paying for this. there are online lectures where i literally just "code along" with the instructor and turn in whatever i did exactly the same as them. i've realized that 100% of the material i could have taught myself much more efficiently.

hopefully i am done taking proper classes forever now lol

what has been your experience with community college boyah?

Nyerp

took a couple semesters like 5 years ago and yeah the classes definitely felt more personal than real college classes. kinda comfy but they didn't have the classes i wanted

YPrrrr

I never went to a community college so I dunno

yea cc is kind of a joke

uh i took a web development class this semester, it was once a week for 2 hours and 45 minutes. i skipped the class like at least 5 times. that alone should have prob failed me. but at the end of the semester we were supposed to submit a website that we created. i literally slapped together 3 pages of the most basic html you could ever imagine and sent it in, it looked like a 90's website. if i didn't fail the class cuz of that i was expecting to fail because of my attendance

[spoiler]i got a B[/spoiler]

man idk how you guys are getting ez classes
every class ive had in my cc actually had staff that were a bit harsh with grading and were on top of their shit
i guess it really depends on the professor through

my brother had an english teacher and i knew he was so dogshit at english and he got an A.  with the shit he had me proofread he was just bad, it just blew my mind.  though i had another prof for the same class and actually tried, to the point of writing a 15-page document for our final project.  barely scrapped by with an A-

always thought it was so bs how much my brother really didnt deserve that A
still bothers me that people are passed with half-assed attempts but i guess ive had my fair share so w/e lollll

Technology and globalism go hand and hand. If you want to be on the forefront of technology then you gotta be global

the earth is flat you globecuck

To be fair 3/4 of the classes I've taken so far have been challenging and useful for me. My Java class kicked my ass but I finished with a B+ which felt good

i have to take 4 community college courses to transfer to my main university in order to get financial aid again (gpa too low) but I've fucked up at CC too so I have to pay for those out of pocket.
what the fuck do I do lol
