Hi all,
I've been going back and forth between taking night classes/doing a formal post-bacc/going to a cc for my pre-reqs and so far, due to money issues, the community college route is most practical. this allows me to work full time, still, and get my credits without spending as much. for example, one class at a close university is about four thousand dollars, while one class at the local cc is about 600. to me, that's a great deal of a difference, especially if i'm willing to take out the massive amounts of loans for medical school.
what does everyone think about this? i'm not looking to get into a very high ranked/selective/research heavy school being that i'm a nontrad student, and will be trying my hardest to just get into a med school, but i've heard some had things about getting my coursework done at a local cc.
thanks for the advice.
