Last 2 years of college...?

I decided to go to school about 1.5 years ago, after being in the work force for over 15 years. I began at community college, with the intent to transfer to a four year school. My bachelor鈥檚 degree will be in Information and Decision Science, which is in the business school, but has a concentration on IT related courses as well. I have finished my stint at community college with all As and one B. All of the courses were Gen-eds; English, Math, 100 level business courses in marketing and management, etc.





How do you think the next two years will be, considering they will be at a better school and also be courses geared towards my major? I would like to load up and try and finish in 1.5 years again, but I am not sure how much harder it will be. This may seem like an obvious question, but are 200 and 300 level courses much more difficult? I didn鈥檛 breeze through some of the courses in community college; calculus, for example was hard because my math skills sucked, so it wasn鈥檛 a walk in the park, so I am curious about what the transition was like from community college to a normal 4 year school (it鈥檚 not Harvard, just a normal state college). Also, what should I expect from a schedule that includes no gen eds.





Thanks in advance for any opinions.|||the 200 and 300 level courses will generally have 2 and 3 times (respectively) the number of hours per week studying for the classes. That's not necessarily to say the classes are that much harder, but they will require you to use everything (I mean everything) you learned in the 100 level classes, but the 'busy work' (homework for the sake of homework) will be gone. In more technical classes, they may start teaching you things that will totally blow your mind, and in order to understand them you have to actually sit down and do your own problems in addition to the problems they give you, but for anything with computers, they will probably cut back on making you do primitive grunt work and let you use programs/plugins that other people have already made.





From a schedule with no gen ed classes, you should expect to eat, sleep, drink, and live the classes you are taking. For instance, I am in Electrical Engineering. For the next while, with the exception of the little time i have, I have to do nothing but programming and working with electronics. All of my classes have something to do with those things, so I don't get a break from it by also having a biology class or an English class.
