Isn't this the reason for the PCAT? To measure what you have actually learned in your classes? I have taken classes at both a CC and a university (majority at a university), and I have found that the level of difficulty is solely determined by your professor, not by whether it is a 2 or 4 year institution. Let's face it, chemistry is chemistry, biology is biology, etc. It's not like the universities are hoarding some secret knowledge, that they only give to their students, to give them a great advantage over CC students. I have also found that my CC night classes offer a great mix of diversity as far as background is concerned. Most university day classes are full of 19 year olds using daddy's money to do take a class they really don't want to be a part of. I realize this is not the case 100% of the time, but I prefer my night classes. People WANT to be there, they use their own money, they work, they want to learn, and they don't worry about what Jane Doe thinks about their clothing selection for the day. I really don't know why the argument between 2 and 4 year institutions is striking such a nerve in this forum. Isn't the point of your pre-reqs to learn? If you think you can learn more at a university, go to a university. If you prefer to learn at a CC, go to a CC. Can't we all just get along!
