    Totally true, internships/volunteer work WON'T carry a 3.1 gpa.

      yea dude... 100%... you can intern for NASA during CC... but if you got a 3.0GPA... ur probably not gonna transfer to your "dream school"....

    It seems CC is getting traction as a viable option. Do you CCs will gradually become more competitive over time? Since, if more ppl do it, then it should get more competitive, right?

    • @ethanh5217
      @ethanh5217 Před 3 lety +2

      Then again, I'm going off of a couple TED talks I saw. It's still an outlier option despite the exposure of CC success.

      @KRHEE  Před 3 lety +14

      probably might be more competitive as the years go by.. so better start now than later

    Hey man, im a senior in HS and my dream school was Rutgers. Unfortunately I got declined from it because literally too many people applied, and they didn't have time to look at my application. I got into other schools, but I have mixed feelings about them. So now I'm thinking about going to CC and try to transfer to Rutgers afterwards. But I've been watching ur videos and I just want to say thank u man!🙏

    Hey Kendrick! Just wanted to first saw that I love all of your videos and have been binging them like a damn Netflix show LMAO. There really aren’t any videos of transfers especially from a cc students’ perspective. I really appreciate all of the work you’ve put in these videos.
    I have one question though. I’m at a cc in PA with a 3.9 gpa and only part time work as an ec. I will be getting my AA in engineering in the spring. My dream is to go to an out of state school (i.e. Vanderbilt, USC, UNC) as a biomedical engineering major. How big of a factor do you think the in state vs out of state dynamic is?

    • @KRHEE
      @KRHEE  Před 3 lety +5

      Probably not much difference ... but the only thing that might be diff is how much u gotta pay for out of state colleges (usc unc etc)

    Hello! First of all, thank you for your videos! I’m going to SMC this year and I plan to transfer to USC after 2 years. However, as much as I do want to do extracurriculars, I cannot really do much due to COVID-19. The only extracurricular i have atm is my job :( And in high school, I volunteered at a hospital, altar served, and taught at a school. Any tips on some extracurriculars to do rn, given the pandemic? Thank you!
