Apparently reading isn't your strong point so I'll say it again but more clearly.

I took a single U of C class (bio 211 or something IIRC) at MRC because it was full at the U of C. I sat in on the U of C course quite frequently because I had friends in that course, I then went to my course at MRC and it was a joke compared to the U of C course. I have numerous friends who say that MRC is like a slightly harder version of HS and then went to a University and found it was way harder and MRC hadn't really prepared them for how much harder University is than HS.

I then said rather clearly in my original post that perhaps with MRC becoming a University they have made their degree programs more on par with how the U of C is and that I wasn't sure because I am not at MRU taking a degree. In fact until someone who has experience at the U of C goes there it is impossible to compare the two institutions and considering they JUST became a university it is impossible for you to so rudely say they are equal.

So as you can see there are varying degrees of "hard" that a class can be. Not saying their entire degree program is a joke, but that when comparing ONE class and a few NON DEGREE programs from the past (IE prior to MRC being a University) I find that MRC is WAY easier than the U of C.

Of course now that they are UNIVERSITY, which they weren't before, that may change.

I don't know why I had to say any of this again, I thought it was pretty clear the first time.

Clearly you would have benefited from taking a few reading comprehension courses. (from the U of C of course because they are harder)
