What do you think of the first 4 classes I am going to take at a community college?

Question

English Composition 1

World History

Fundamental Speech

Biology

Answer 1

These look good. You will have to be ready to read and write a lot. The bio course will involve a lab requirement, which will take time out of your week.

If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, you may want to drop or change one of these to a less academically demanding course. But, don't just drop the units. Stay in the 12 unit range in CC so that when you get to your 4-year school, you're ready for the intensity of the quarter system. It's much more fast paced and has a heavier workload that CCs.

Answer 2

Community college?   Do people actually get degrees there?           I went to N.Y.U.    a real college.

Answer 3

They're all liberal art classes except for biology. That means a lot of textbook reading and writing papers. Prepare to draft outlines for the speech class, you'll have to turn them in when you give speeches.  

Answer 4

Check out rate my professors and type in your school to see how other students rate the teachers you're taking! BTW some of those English teachers can be EVIL!!!!!!!

Answer 5

It looks like you are taking the basic classes to get your requirements out of the way, and that is a good thing. All but fundamental speech are requirements but it is a good class to have if you are going to do anything that involves talking to people. Good choices.
