Deepak,

Phoenix is generally noted as central area of the city.  East side includes 
Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Apache Junction and Mesa.  West side actually 
pertains mostly to the west area (anything past 35th avenue) of Phoenix, 
Glendale, Peoria and anything beyond the city going towards California.

GCC is Glendale Community College which is near the border of Phoenix (east 
side of Glendale).  Glendale is not very big in comparison to other cities 
around it.  It's easy to get confused.  Hope this helps.
