Admissions

I would suggest prospective students take the course titled 'Counseling 1' it's a very simple class that provides all the tips and more to succeed in this college. I've just completed it and I can say it was VERY helpful.

If you're just getting ready to become a part of Long Beach City College, or any college for that matter, I would suggest that you take your most challenging courses first. Doing this will help you speed through school by staying in your high school mode. Take summer school classes because they usually have less homework and are a lot faster than taking a full length class. Pace yourself like a runner. Push hard in the summer, stride in the Fall, and build up momentum in the Spring.

College is a lifelong attribute to your success. Take advantage of the opportunities afforded you, by attending school, and experiencing an enlightenment that may be positively overwhelming. Respect the professors you meet, as you journey through your educational goal(s). They have put the work in to educate students who care about a serious education, and are open to sharing that knowledge in their lectures, office hours, mentoring, etc.

It depends what you're going for if you are wanting to transfer try doing good in your assessment test because if you don't you'll end up taking non transferable classes for English and Math. Take a counseling 1 so that you can avoid from being confused and it also helps you to understand better at what you're goals are.
