<p>@Rawrdino: the maximum AP credit for English is 8, and you get 8 credits for each test. If you’ve already passed the Literature test, then you received 8 credits and the Language test will give you no additional credits or benefits.</p>
<p>I took the Language test and skipped out on the Literature test for this very reason.</p>
<p>What’s your college and major? We can help you out. Also, closer to registration an advisor will give you classes that they recommend for you to take, but if you get an understanding of all the classes you need you can customize it to what would better suit you. I know you’re probably thinking “I am SO lost right now”, but everything will make sense when you get here for sure.</p>
<p>I have a question about the math placement test… is it difficut? I took calc bc last year so I might be a little rusty, but how could I prepare for it? Same with chem placement test?</p>
<p>I’m in High School, but chose UCSD for a paper. I need to simulate a schedule for my freshman year (Fall and Spring). It can be for any college. A link to Freshman Year requirements would help :)</p>
<p>Has a transfer student from a CCC ever been accepted to the 5-year B.S./M.S. program? I’m interested in the program for Comp. Sci. but am concerned that my application wouldn’t be taken seriously since my lower requirements were completed at a community college.</p>
<p>There are 6 colleges within UCSD, and your general requirements for freshman year would depend on which college you choose; not all freshmen have the same general requirements. You can find more info about the 6 colleges here: [How</a> Does the College System Work?](<a href=“http://www.ucsd.edu/prospective-students/colleges/about/index.html]How”>UC San Diego - Compass)</p>
<p>I am aiming for the Pre-Med program at UCSD, how much does an extra year of Lab Sciences in the form of IB Physics SL help?</p>
<p>I’m deciding between this course and IB Economy. IB Economy would raise my GPA due to the fact it is much easier.
On the other hand, IB Physics would be an extra year of lab sciences, but it is much harder. Global average on the IB Physics test is 4.06 out of 7. Our school average is 4.69 out of 7. </p>
<p>So basically, I’m choosing between DEFINITE HIGHER GPA and EXTRA YEAR OF LAB SCIENCE.</p>
<p>There are soft caps (200 for single major; 220 for engineering; 240 for double major, etc.), but plenty of people have exceeded them in the past by talking to academic advising first.</p>
<p>Hi, I am a new student starting my first year at UCSD and a Physics major, I am curious as to what programming course I should take to get the most relevant and useful skills for my major. This will also be my very first computer programming course. My choices are:
MATLAB programing and engineering analysis
Intro to Computer Sci/ Java A
Basic Data Structure and OO Design
Intro to Programming
All of these have no deep meaning for me, so I am searching for advice and direction.
Thank You</p>
<p>Are they cool at UCSD about freshmen joining these clubs are there any sorts of limitations as to what they can do/participate in as opposed to the upper classmen? Also do you have to know how to snowboard/sur to join or can you learn as you go?</p>
<p>Do engineers at UCSD have time to join clubs? lol I heard engineering is pretty intense at UCSD so i was wondering if anyone knows any engineer who is active in his/her club…</p>
<p>^ engineers are some of the most active UCSD students I know. As a result they are also often the happiest, most satisfied and socially integrated people I know at this school. I know a lot of engineers join TESC as a starting point ([TESC</a> | Welcome to UCSD engineering!](<a href=“http://137.110.161.100/welcome/]TESC”>http://137.110.161.100/welcome/)). There are also honors societies and volunteer groups that go on missions abroad or tutor students. Sorry, I’m not an engineer so I don’t have much detail to tell you but to answer your question: yes, they do have time. I suggest attending the very first TESC meetings and not only socializing and networking, but getting their input on what clubs/orgs are worth joining. </p>
<p>and of course if you want to join a completely non-engineering related club/org, you can surely do that as well. Pretty much every club/org I’ve ever been to has had members from the math, science, or engineering disciplines so clearly, they do have time.</p>
<p>For the CSE department I got an e-mail that said seats in certain classes opened up today, but when I go to WebReg it says it’s available from August 27 - Sept 3. I’m an incoming freshman so I’m completely clueless, but how/when can I sign up for my class? I’m trying to take CSE8A but even when I look at the schedule of classes on tritonlink it Says they all have full waitlists. I’m a little scared and could use some clearing up. Thanks in advance!</p>
<p>Did you check your enrollment time? You’re a freshman so you don’t get to enroll until Aug 29 at the earliest. Log-in at the link below to check when your individual registration time is. If you’re lucky, you start around Aug 29-30 (earliest possible for first-year students). If you’re not as lucky, you’ll get a later start time and have to wait a few more days to enroll. Enrollment start times are given to freshmen by lottery their first quarter. after that, it’s based on the number of units from AP exams or junior college classes that you reported to UCSD. </p>
<p>Don’t worry about the waitlist. All those people have NOT gotten in yet; they’re in queue to get in once freshmen finish enrolling. UCSD lets freshmen into CSE 8A first, then lets those people in from the waitlist. Feel special.</p>
