Mercer County Community College knows exactly what it is, and does its function. Its a stepping stone for people who want to achieve at a cheaper price than a four year college. You can save money by coming here first and despite the other comments, the work is as hard as your efforts. If you produce next to nothing, expect poor grades, if you produce good work, expect A's. There is also great support for students who want it and are willing to work hard, but if you a lazy idiot then its easy to blame the college and teachers for not getting a 4.0

The guidance department in MCCC was horrible. Every semester before classes, I would go for advice as to which courses to take to complete my major. Every time, I'd be told that half the courses I took during the previous semester could not be applied to my major (I majored in Humanities, since they did not have an Education curriculum) and I would have to take a whole slew of other courses. Every semester I was told this. By a different adviser. Every time. After three years of chasing my tail academically, I threw up my hands and gave up.

If you're transferring to another university, get THEIR curriculum, not MCCC's, and follow that to the letter. MCCC will have you chasing dragons.

However, I had a pleasant experience with the teachers (not with most of the students), and learned a great deal in a manner that made information retention fairly easy. The flaw in MCCC is NOT the teachers as much as it is the guidance department and the students themselves.

The campus is NOT safe at night, by the way. Carry mace. Especially if you're female and alone.

This is the worst school I have ever attended. The faculty is biased and plays favorites with students. Most of the teachers are also heads of their departments and are not helpful. Any questions are often returned with no help and commonly with negative attitude and mean comments. If you happen to get on the bad side of a teacher, consider yourself failed for the class. Work is NEVER returned promptly and every grade is dependant on opinion and rarely graded just on the work itself. I witness ,many foriegners in class recieving high grades merely because they asked alot of question because they did not understand. Even though they could hardly speak english they would get nearly perfect grades on written assignments, when I nearly fail because the teacher is to harsh on the papers or writes mere opinions. So if you want to be successful at this school, just kiss the teachers a** and ask alot of questions, even if you know the answer. The biased treatment is very frustrating. And the teacher, directors and deans are of no help. Almost half of my program (PTA) went to the dean to complain about the teachers, that should tell you how they treat their students here.
