[@DataHotep]

@@bangbangninergang5133 Go niners! Here's my experience: It depends on what you want to get into, your strengths and the institution. Community colleges are much more approachable. They are there to serve students and educate. You should definitely go to a good one and give it the college try. The Community Colleges can be challenging, but generally easier because they serve a much larger demographics than traditional universities. Though once you go further, it will be different. If you get into anything that you weren't super exposed to or are gifted in, and its at an R1 research university- its gonna be hard AF. Make no doubt about it. I've seen straight A students flunk classes and go on academic probation. Lots of them. And I don't care which major, you will struggle because its designed to be challenging so you'll learn more. Now if you've been exposed to the major already, or are gifted- it could be a walk in the park, or slightly less challenging. If you go to a lower tier school, like a mid level to lower state school or a school that doesn't do research, or even a very small private liberal arts school with a hella small student body- its going to be easier. Though what usually happens is either its not as rigorous, or the price of the education goes way up (for private). With your benefits I say just apply to good school, and give it the good ol college try! You never know what could happen! If you fail well you can always change your major and continue. At the UC's a D- is passing. lol. just remember that.

I have an associates degree in computer engineering. It didn't take long for me to find a job. Before I even graduated, I got an internship with IBM, and they were telling me how they don't really care that much what your degree is; what they care about more is your experiences. Most (but not all) high-paying businesses want someone who has actually got their hands dirty. A degree shows a level of commitment and it tells employers that you have decent knowledge of the field, but it doesn't say anything about you've accomplished or done in your field.

It's nice to see my 3 associate degrees aren't in vain. I know, I know 3. It took 4 years and approximately $24K in tuition, but I feel I am more well-diversified. I have a liberal art degree for exactly the soft skills. My business degree taught me the basic language of business, soft skills, and some problem solving. Lastly, I received an electronics degree because I am a nerd. I love electronics. They are tiered exactly like my initials DAS. In the order they were received. My ultimate goal is to run an electronics/computer business (or be part of one). I have experiences in the office as well as electronics assembly (soldering). So, it's not like I don't know what to do with them... it's just going to take longer to implement my plans.

13:17 *Please do not belittle the complicated practice of "coding" as you say.* I'm a programmer for a bank. I can tell you right now you have to have a Bachelors degree or higher if you want any chance at being a programmer and making 70k a year. I have to program in p1 programming language and occasionally do database work in SQL. Most likely you will have to program in more than 1 language or risk losing out to another candidate. Unless you have 5+ years of professional coding experience from a reputable company, employers don't want someone with an associates or who got a certificate from some kind of coding boot camp. There is much more to programming than simply knowing how to print "hello world", open files, draw shapes, etc. in JAVA or C++. *You also have to be really good at math, know data structures and algorithms, analyze and design systems, etc.* You have to code efficiently. Your code can't take a week to finish running. You have to be able to refactor inefficient code when needed. Some programmers neglect writing scalable code and employers might need to hire someone who can write scalable code. Saying you can be a programmer with just an associates degree is like saying you can be a surgeon with an associates degree. It is possible *but would you want a surgeon with only an associates degree performing surgery on you?*

As someone with an associate degree in Automation ( I&C) be prepared to job hunt. Few years ago companies might of been more willing to take a fresh grad at entry level and get you trained. But atm its rough. Took me almost 2 months out of school even with 6 years of production in an industrial setting. You really only learn the basics of everything. Electrical, robotics, motor controls, ect. You technically can't really work on electrical components right out of the gate. You will have to continue learning a lot on the job and start from the bottom. The good news is with this degree you will start off in the $20+ hr. If you impress the company with good pre employment test scores (yes you will be tested before employment) even $30hr isnt unheard of.

there's plenty of jobs available for psychology degrees though most are at the ba level but the associate level can get you in the door which many psych organizations will allow you to work for them and pay for you to advance to the next level. Though because a psychology is so popular the field is saturated and very competitive so that would make it difficult to even find a job after you get the degree

You'd be competing with a lot of people with newly-minted bachelor's degrees in psychology. An AA in psychology is a good place to start before you enroll in a BA program, especially if your community college has an articulation agreement with universities. To get a counseling job, though, you're going to need a master's.

I would suggest attending an Atelier if you want to be an artist. Much cheaper and better learning experience plus smaller more hands on classes.

There are lots of opportunities with a Teaching AA to work in preschools, Montessori or daycares. You need a Bachelors and a teaching credential for K-12 though. Putting the teaching degree in ‘D’ tier is a bad call in my opinion.

It is really useful, can you do this with bachelor's degree too?

Dude, you seriously need to cut back on the 'air quotes.' I think you may be an ADDICT. And some of the thing's you're using them on don't even require air quotes. Plus, when you do use air quotes, you're literally putting the words up on the screen already so that's kind of doing the same thing.

Since Japanese is one of the most difficult languages for native English speakers to learn, would a degree in Japanese Linguistics move higher in the list or stay at D?

I just started at my local C.C, I am 27 years old. I want to transfer and get a Bachelors in Management Information System. The C.C I’m at AND my future 4 year school has recommended I get my Associate in Arts and transfer to my school of choice. however I am afraid I am wasting two years just getting something basic that will not pay off. Any advice? Should I switch my associates to something more technical or just stay on the path paved out for me and hope for the best?

I am currently in the middle of my two years at a community college. I don't know whether to continue my associates of arts or transfer over to a associates of science. The biggest problem is that I don't know what I want to do with my life. I might join the military through the National Guard and then continue my school during or go special forces for while in the guard then retire after 5 years of something. Or if I don't join the military I will just go to a four year and start a small business. I have no clue what I actually want to do though. Any suggestions from people who have more experience in life and schooling?

I heard the license test is pretty difficult and expensive ($500) and it took her three tries to finally pass. But she's making $60,000+ annually with just an associates degree. The teachers in our state only make $47,000 a year with a bachelor's. I say it's worth it.
