Yes, CC’s offer the first two years. They offer the equivalent of freshman and sophomore year courses. Some people are saying the first two years at CC aren’t equivalent to the first two years at a university. I disagree.

But, yes, the junior and senior year courses should be tougher.

A university offers advanced and specialized courses unavailable at the CC’s.

At the CC an aspiring engineer will sit in a freshman physics class that is taught for all disciplines at a level lower than he desires.

At an university he can sit in a class of class made up of smart physics majors selected from a much larger and wider pool and taught at a higher level.
