I need some advice about making a decision where I should finish my pre-reqs. I graduated, with 3.1, from a Community College and I had completed haft my pre-req there such as pre-cal, calc1, bio 1 and 2 with lab, and chem 1 and 2 with lab. Now I am missing orgo and phy.
After I graduated I went to a four year college and I am expected to grad with a bachelor this August with a 2.6. I know my GPA is low but I have good reasons.
Now I am deciding whether I should postpone my graduation till next year so I can finish my orgo a phy or return back to my community college and finish it there. My four year college is too expensive and far for me to commute and I don’t want to pay any more money for housing.
Long story short, the reason I didn’t finish my pre-req at my four year college is I withdrawal from the course, because of personal reasons. And my school only offers part one of orgo and phy once a year. Basically if I miss the boat, I have to wait till next year.
I applied to a local four year college around my home, but they won’t let me register till 2 days before school start and the class sections are about to close. However my community college, for some reason, let me register for the fall semester in advance. In addition my FASA covered my entire tuition for CC.
I have over 1000 hours a volunteer experience and Published in a Western Journal of Emergency Medicine for research. I was also eventually rewarded a Certificate of Recognition by the hospital. I have plenty of recommendation from physicians, nurse managers, and etc.
Some advice will be appreciated. Thank you!

Just an FYI from my experience:

If you are on FA or loans you may not be able to use them to pay for the classes at the community college. I would check with them before making any decision. I had this problem when I worked on my prerequisites.

Yeah, but C.C. is sooooo cheap. A child could finance that education. Am I missing something? I know this as someone who did post-bacc. work at a community college.

Regardless of wherever you go just make sure you have good professors, especially for the Orgos. My professor at C.C. was evil incarnate, a tough grader, and a miserable excuse for a teacher.

I had one C on my transcript before I experienced her "teaching." Now I have three. I hope her dog eats her.

I ran into the same problem with one bad professor in Org. He gave me a D when I actually made a higher grade. He decided to change his syllabus during the semester for whatever reason. I argued with him and eventually appealed my grade with the board and he had to correct it.

The cute girl in the class made an A and she was not sure how she did that...

Honestly, I would take the class wherever it would be cheapest and you would have the best chance of getting an A. Ad-coms really don't care where you took a course or the level of difficulty. It's all about the grades.
