<p>Hey! Another greenhorn here seeking your help. Well, I will keep the intro brief and just get on with my queries. ;)</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Whats the difference between honor and regular courses to the UC? Is someone who is in the honor program given priority consideration? If I managed to maintain a 4.0 by taking regular courses only, would I still have a decent shot at the likes of Haas?</p></li>
<li><p>When you report your grades on the UC website for admission, does the form distinguish honor courses from regular ones? For example, when you select on the list which classes you have taken, does the list only have "English 1A" or does it have "English 1A" and "English 1A Honors"? In essence, will the admission rep know whether which of the classes you have taken are honors and which are not?</p></li>
<li><p>Will having a very light first semester adversely affect me? I only took 7 credits (2 classes) in the first semester compared to 18 (5 classes) in my second semester. Would this be what they'd label an 'unbalanced' schedule?</p></li>
<li><p>Does the UC look at SAT for transfer students? How about Haas?</p></li>
<li><p>How can you get a TAP with a particular UC, say, UCLA?</p></li>
</ul>
<p>Hope the sheer amount of questions I have there won't scare any of you off! Haha, thanks in advance!</p>
