What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
If I had the chance to go back in time and give myself advice on the future, I don?t know where I would be able to start. I truly have gained an immense amount of knowledge these couple of years. The first and most important advice I would give myself is to take my time in figuring out what I want as a career goal. I think the first step in the process of one?s academic awakening is realizing what his or her interests are. When I was seventeen I was so in rush to figure out what I wanted to do with my life that I didn?t understand that some things don?t have shortcuts. The second important advice I would explain to myself would be to understand that education is not a destination, but rather a journey. For most of my high school, I was impatient to graduate and move on to the next step in my life. Unfortunately, I was unaware that learning is a process and not just a point on a map. I would tell myself that experience is the ultimate learning process and there are no such things as mistakes.

What's the most frustrating thing about your school?
Fewer classes are open now and it's just hard to choose what classes you need, for your GE, that has the convenient timing for your personal schedule. Fewer classes with more people going to community colleges because it's cheaper will lead to problems later I think.

What kind of person should not attend this school?
A person who enjoys the "city life" more than a country setting should not attend GCC. The campus is full of green vistas all around. The mountains on the right side of the campus is the most precious jewel the college has been bestowed. The weather in the campus can be frustrating at times especially with heat waves that torment the campuse for several weeks at a time, luckily most of the classrooms have an AC.

What do you brag about most when you tell your friends about your school?
One of the worst things that probably 99{4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the students in our college complain about which is a reasonable issue to compalin for is the short compressed amount of time that are given each semester to cover a certain amount of topic in that class. Although, you might say that this is college level and students should keep up with the fast paced classes offered, most of the time probably 85 {4a082faed443b016e84c6ea63012b481c58f64867aa2dc62fff66e22ad7dff6c} of the instructors don't even manage to cover every topic in the given time so they end up skipping topics or doing a poor job on them.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
The worst thing at GCC is other students taking their classes seriously. Because of the recent budget cuts, there are less classes available which makes it difficult to register in classes. Hence, it is frustrating when you cannot enroll in the classes you need when they are filled with other students who drop the class half way through the semester. Also, if you are partnered up with a classmate who is not serious about the class, your grade can be negatively affected.
