      100%. I think I did college every possible way (except ivy league). First two years at a small liberal arts college, left because tution went way up and scholarship stayed the same. Three yeara at a big univeraity, where i switched majors and graduated with a bunch of useless paper in time for the 2009 financial crisis. Never found a career and went back to community college for a focused degree. All had good and bad aspects but community college i thought was the best learning experience.

      Part of that may have been due to already being loaded up on gen ed credits, so i could focus on just the degree classes. It was also the fact that the teachers were real people who had experience in the field rather than career academics.
