Student Ratings
Ginger Monge Student at This School - Grad Year 2014
While there are many classes to choose from, I am currently taking four. Depending on the person, some classes are more difficult than others of course. The workload is a lot, therefore, one must really balance their priorities. Just because Palomar is a community college, does not mean that the classes are easier. This is not the case. As mentioned, these classes are a lot of work. Whatever you put into it, is what you will get out of it. All of my classes are about averaged size. For the most part, the professors are very friendly and easy going, but there may be one or two that has a few ground rules that may make you feel like less than an adult. I don't necessarily agree with the a particular "rule" per say, but I do need the credits from the class, so of course I abide.
