My graduation ceremony is on June 2nd and 3rd. I've decided that I'm gonna go to a community college for 2 years, then move to a real college after wards. I'm trying to decide if I want to get further into web designing/server maintenance, or engineering. If I get into engineering, I want to study how to make efficient cars with the right type of materials. I'll probably enter in the spring of next year. I need to make some money first __________________ Come get a ti-shirt Quote: From the e30 M3, evolved the e36.

You'd have to know where you wanted to go after CC but they should have a database saying what 4 year schools accept their credits for the different classes. Also, I just found out that my local CC now has a program where the first 2 years of a major can be taken there and then the last 2 years can be finished at UMD, if you have anything like that I highly recommend taking that (if it is a major you are interested in) it saves a lot of money in the long run. I spent a semester at CC and then went to Maryland. I probably learned more in the CC classes than I have at some of these UMD classes. The individual attention at a CC just can't be beat by a big school. __________________ ~Dave~ 98 328ti Morea Grun slicktop 11 128i space gray slicktop 13 JGC WK2 Deep Cherry Search | RealOEM | | | 05-20-2009, 02:57 PM | #8 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | Congrats Mav! __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | 05-20-2009, 04:16 PM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Wisconsin Posts: 1,895 | Congratulations. If you are a good student, try to go the long haul for college. You'll enjoy your college years more, meet intelligent girls and have a more valuable degree. Nothing wrong with an associates degree, but it is harder to go back to school once you are working somewhere. Ask me how I know. __________________ ... ʎɐqǝ uo pɹɐoqʎǝʞ ɐ ʎnq ı ǝɯıʇ ʇsɐן ǝɥʇ sı sıɥʇ | | | 05-20-2009, 05:11 PM | #10 | Moderator Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: SoCal318ti Posts: 1,574 | All the best to you and College should be fun!!! | | | 05-20-2009, 05:14 PM | #11 | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 | awesome!
