help!! college question?
im a senior at my high school and i knoe what i wanna do as far as a career goes. Yet getting there is a different story.
i knoe i want to go to a 2 year community college and then transfere to a 4 year.
but im having a problem in finding out what to do in the 2 year.
cuz mainly all i want to do in the 2 year is get EVERYTHING that is general related out of the way. so that once i transfer to the 4 year, ill be able to concentrate on my career choice. and take classes that ONLY assosiate with my career choice.
so………..what classes do i take in my 2 year college…..what classes do i take so as to get them out of the way……and make way for my career????????

However it is mostly history, college algebra, gov., lit., etc…
Like I said the advisor at your 2 year will be able to tell you for sure…
You can look on the schools website for their “core classes”… or sometimes they are called “basics”.
That guy above about transfer rates being low is not right! I am moving to my 4 year next week! I’m going with a very high GPA… not everyone can afford to go to a 4 year college for 4 years… believe in yourself and you can do what ever the hell you want!
Even when interviewing for my first “real” job out of college, it was clear to me that I would be using very, very little of what I had actually learned inside a classroom.
That said, the pre-requisites for a given degree are going to vary wildly. I’d take a look at the degree programs of the school(s) you’re considering to transfer to and see what they recommend for their students during their freshman and sophmore years. You’ll probably want to take at least 1 semester of Calculus, a hard science like Chemistry or Physics, maybe Philosophy, some History, and 2 years of a foreign language. I don’t care what career you choose – a 2nd language always helps.
Some 4-years have arrangements with regional community colleges that have a proscribed set of courses they recommend and accept as transfer credit from, usually as part of an Associates.
For example, ASU in Arizona has a program with the local community college district that creates “Associate’s in Trancfer Partnership” degrees that is an Associates that transfers as the first 2 years of certain Bachelors degrees with essentially complete transfer of credits and courses.
Other schools may have something similar, ask yours.
plus too you get two degrees when you transfer from a CC!!!
