Question:
Is CCBC a good school?
For those in Maryland, I'm planning on attending Community College of Baltimore County preferably Essex. I have been hearing that their general courses and prerequisites classes are very hard. I like a challenge but, it's my first time in college and I've been out of high school for a while. Not to mention, going to a city public hs wasn't all that great meaning they don't teach as much as some of the other county schools.
yeah, well I know I could do better but I want to start off at a community college before going to a university.

CCBC has great opportunities for many students. Lots of support for students; tutors, associations, and teachers/instructors that really care. I even had lunch with my instructors and they know you by your name!
Don't put yourself down. My sister graduated from a public high school in Baltimore City. She got a scholarship to a wonderful catholic college; the nuns told her not to expect so much academically since she came out of a city public school. She graduated valdictorian!
Don't accept answers about this question without an explanation. Take a class this summer to get your feet wet. You might like it!
Best of luck.
