I went there. I don't think anyone plays TF2 there.

I mean, there may of been two. I met a brony that played steam games in my speech class. I decided to cut him loose after he got trolled by an internet friend. Another time I was walking down a hallway and a guy saw me wearing the demoman shirt and was like "nice shirt". I said thanks and went on my way. This was like 3+ years ago.

I don't think anyone here is gonna proudly admit they went to community college. I didn't spend any of my time there socializing, it was pretty depressing.

I live in montgomery new jersey so it's basically the same thing

i live in germantown maryland and im going to go to MC soon lol

nobody socializing doesn't sound too exciting..well i guess ill see how it goes once i get there

ya but you dont have 100k in student loans which is also pretty cool.

financially 2 years of CC is a great idea it's a shame there's such a stigma against it

I was unaware of this stigma in regards to community college. What even is it?

A lot of people think cc is for poor or dumb people who cat get into university

Accidental post

what is this small world a lot of my hs classmates went to mc

rip i know like one kid who might be going to mc who plays tf2 but he doesnt even play comp what a pleb :^)

it's on you to find people to socialize with. join a club, do extracurricular activities, go to a hookah bar, etc. cc is a great idea and you save a lot of money.

community college is great if you have noidea what you want to do in your life or even if you know what you want to do in your life but wana have fun while getting credit towards ur stuff

what campus?

sheit I grew up in Germantown

edit: before it became a stupid urban jungle

Rockville and Takoma Park. At least 1/3 of my classes were online.

I understand the arguments for Community college(financially cheaper tuition and living at home) but what I've came to realize was that, given that college years are some of the most crucial moments of growth in your life. Why would you skimp on quality of education and put yourself in a network of people that aren't as passionate in their studies?

The potential to maximize growth and immerse yourself in like-minded people at a university studying similar interests are much higher than at a CC. When you're living on-campus, you're immersed in a whole world of people that have more open schedules for study groups, after school projects, and self-interest delving into your major. At a CC, it's much much harder to get schedules in sync and convince people to do some generic ass curriculum. You're paying for the education, not just the passing grade.

But yeah, if your after school activities include binge gaming I'm all for CC. Subconsciously, that pretty much the reason why I choose Montgomery college lol

ive heard that germantown is less of a hell than rockville

went to CC for free for 2 years it was p fun. Still can be not the greatest if you go to a 4 year after though. I had credits not transfer and they basically told me they thought I was going to fail the rest of undergrad because the admissions people think CC is terrible but I did fine this semester so they might just be wrong. Big thing is make sure all your credits transfer and transfer correctly. English 102 at my CC was covered by AP Lit but 102 at UAB is covered by AP Lang, so I have two 101 credits and have to pay to take 102. Second advice: time when you transfer and plan around doing as good as possible for the first semester or two to get scholarship GPA money. Like don't transfer in for a bio degree without having taken Anatomy, even if it means you have to take English 102 or Biology 1 or something stupid. My GPA (3.95->3.8) dropped a bit because I took Bio 2 (weed out course here) at Uni instead of at CC where I could've gotten an A way easier

Also dont go to University for "the life" people here are just as stupid as they were in CC but because they'll be doctors instead of nurses they have horrible attitudes about life
