Having trouble picking a school?

No. None of the above.
Engineering and or physics require you demonstrate your ability to be exceptional in a traditional college AND not at your own pace. In other words, it seems opposite of what you are looking for.
If you don't mind saying, are the difficulties you're having at the community college or a university? I might have some suggestions to help with those classes. Also, since you found this board, you're likely considering testing, which might be an excellent way of "fast-forwarding" through some of the social science and humanities courses that make up your gen eds...and get you into the "meat" of your math and science classes quicker.
I'm trying to assess if you're having trouble with the college process, or if you're looking towards the wrong field of study. Once you get set in the right direction, you'll gain some traction, and this will be less painful. Smile
