<p>I passed AP Stat w/ a 4...If I pass AP Microecon, Macroecon, and Calc AB this year, could I graduate Biz Econ in 3 or 3.5 years?</p>
<p>here is a process to determine that answer, for any major, without asking questions which really can't be answered specifically.</p>
<ol>
<li>look at your intended major in the course catalog</li>
<li>count the number of classes required that you aren't exempted from</li>
<li>divide that number by 3 or 4, depending on how many classes you think you'll take any given quarter (i suggest 3.5)</li>
<li>the resulting number tells you how many quarters are required simply to deal with your major requirements</li>
</ol>
<p>now, repeat the process for GE classes you need to take, other college requirements, and add a few courses for pure electives if you want to take anything that's not a requirement. also consider whether you want to have a minor: if yes, add 7 or 8 classes.</p>
<p>add together how many quarters it takes to complete your major, and those for other requirements, and you'll see how many years you're looking at!</p>
<p>while someone could give you a general answer of "yes/no/maybe if you work hard" isn't a more specific answer tailored to you more valuble? calculate it yourself! (also keep in mind that you're going to be changing your mind plenty during college. you will. trust me!)</p>

<p>generally, yes you can graduate in less than 4 years if you plan your courses wisely. more unrealistic if youre in engineering.</p>
<p>Assuming you get the scores you need, that saves you three classes (Econ 1, Econ 2, Math 31A), and you would need to get a 5 on the AP Calculus AB exam, and a 4 or 5 on both of the economics tests...just passing won't give you anything but unassigned units, if anything. In order to get out of the math requirement altogether for biz econ, you'd need to take the AP Calc BC test and get a 5 on it. The stats AP will not count for a requirement. It's all on this chart: </p>
<p>Other AP units that may apply for college requirements include foreign language and either one of the English exams, which can get you out of Writing I...but not Writing II.</p>
<p>Also take into consideration any community college credit you might have, because that can count for GEs, foreign language, and Writing II. If this applies to you, GE articulation agreement charts are here: </p>
<p>Biz-econ amounts to about 20 classes, not counting the Writing II requirement, which is a college requirement anyway. Nothing in the biz-econ major counts as a GE, so that's 10 more...and AP credits can't count as GEs. There's also Writing I and II, but Writing II/the seminar requirement can overlap with your GEs, and both get knocked out if you take a year-long GE Cluster, but they're pretty challenging. You might want to take up a minor, and the number of classes that entails varies - if it's accounting, it's just three more classes, but if it's something else, that'll be a lot more. And, well, you weren't too detailed in talking about your situation, and there are some really basic college requirements like quantitative reasoning and American history which can be taken care of with SAT scores. </p>
<p>Just take a look at this: </p>
<p>Be aware that some of those classes are prerequisites for each other, so you can't take them all at once - you have to take Econ 1 and 2 (or get credit for them) before taking 11, and you can't take 101 until after that, and 102 until you take 101. There are also a lot of electives you can't take without taking all the way up to Econ 102. You can't take upper div management courses until you take Mgmt 1A and Mgmt 1B, and there are some you can't take until you take Mgmt 120A and Mgmt 120B. </p>
<p>Also, you might want to browse through the registrar site, especially the catalogue: </p>
<p><a href="http://www.registrar.ucla.edu%5B/url%5D">http://www.registrar.ucla.edu</a></p>
<p>Try mapping it out with 3-4 classes per quarter (try starting out with 3 for at least your first quarter), keeping in mind that you will not want to start out with Econ 11 or Mgmt 1A first quarter of your freshman year... (Also, the total number of AP units you have matters, because you can't enroll in certain classes, such as Mgmt 1A and Econ 11, without at least sophomore standing, which is 45 units...you can figure that out with the AP chart I linked to above.) Of course, whether or not you take summer sessions will also make a difference.</p>
<p>^uuuhh, actually i was looking for something more extensive...;)</p>
<p>thx</p>
<p>Question - do the AP Comp./US. gov't exams give you credit for any of the following:
Political Science 10, 20, 30, 40, 50.</p>
<p>use the website keywon posted ;)</p>
<p>No they do not.</p>
