What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

Marvin

The most frustrating thing about my school is costly of the book. I personal think that buying book are unbelievable price which I can't afford. I feel like author and schools are trying make profiteers for those kind book. Make it education as profits. I see all the student try to save money because books are so expensive that more of students had secondary jobs at certain restaurant, car wash, and stores. Their secondary job help them buy book, however it cut down FASA aids and make it difficult concentrate at school.

Getting enrolled in classes and maintaining an average of 3.0 and higher is the most frustrating thing about my school because in order to take classes at PCC, students usually have to register two weeks earlier to get the classes that they want. To get a good grade and maintaining the GPA is hard to do because many of these students have family obilgations, volunteer work, and work in general that could affect their GPA dramatically.
