You get what you put in. Almost every teacher is willing to take you to the next level if you're ambitious enough.
Eric from Parlin, NJ
brookdale community college offers various educational opportunities for students less financially capable than others. however, the guidance office can be very unstable when it comes to integrity. on the other hand, most staff members and professors exceed normal expectations by applying actual useful information into the class.
Ann from Manalapam, NJ
You get what you put into it.
Jenna from Freehold, NJ
This school is the best community college you could probably go to. All the teachers are extremely dedicated and I haven't had one that wasn't willing to help you when you needed help.
