Thank you for the advice and links, everybody! I have another question for you guys: Is it advisable to take more challenging courses than those required or just fulfilling the requirements okay?
In high school, you’re always advised to take more challenging courses than those that are required. Is it the same way in community college? For example, if I am only required to take Math 101 (intro college math), should I work myself up to Calculus (or whatever is higher than where I am at) or only take the one required math class?
