Vuk, I have to ask. Do you go to UW-Whitewater? I remember that you live in Wisconsin and I just get the vibe that you're a Whitewater person. Also, if you were an advanced home-schooled student than college SHOULD be easy for you. General education requirements are designed for the people from lousy schools who just barely got into college and if you're use to learning information on your own than the upper level classes should be a piece of cake as well. If classes are so easy for you than you should have taken advantage of things like research(I get to study snail parasites next year!), internships, or study abroad(you went to Hungary right?). Those are things you simply can't get from a CC. However, CCs have their places. In many cases, a CC degree is considered just as good as a bachelors degree. Biotech is a specific case of this. They'll accept either degree and it is not uncommon to hear of CC biotechs making 35-45k out of college. CCs are also a good way to graduate early, by taking their cheap classes over the summer. Going to a CC for the first two years and then transferring to a 4 year college isn't a bad idea either. It is a lot cheaper and gen eds are a waste of time wherever you take them.
