Anyone in a similar situation?? UCSD & UCI Transfer w/TAG

<p>So basically I'm taking a Math class during a winter intersession which is </p>

<p>Math 5b ( 2nd yr Calc) and i am planning to drop with a "W" cause it is to hard for a short </p>

<p>session.</p>

<ul>
<li>I Have a Cumulative GPA of a 3.01 so my UC GPA should be slightly higher </li>
<li>I have TAG with UCSD, UCI</li>
<li>I already finished my IGETC </li>
<li>But I will be missing 2 pre-reqs which math 5B being one of them *
-I'm a Bio Major and i already know i won't get into UCSD as that major but my alt is Psych which should be non-impacted for both UC's</li>
</ul>

<p>Would not taking Math 5B hurt my chance not getting into UCSD and UCI with TAG? Also i have to update and change it to "in-progress" to "withdrawal". But i will try to add the class during spring semester, most likely it wont happen though . so i might be putting "Planned" Math 5b in spring.</p>

<p>im curious as to why you’re taking math5b; is it req’d for a psych major at those colleges? and a side is i hope you’re confident with your math skills becus it appears that class could void the TAG if things didn’t go smoothly</p>

<p>Why would it void my TAG?? </p>

<p>According to assist.org Math 5b is a prereq for bio majors which is my current major</p>

<p>things not going smoothly = your gpa going below a 3.0</p>

<p>But my GPA won’t go below a 3.0 because i’m deciding to drop and receive a “W”</p>

<p>My question is if i do decided to drop this class will my TAG be Voided?</p>

<p>Just get a C and pass it. It won’t affect your overal GPA since it’s winter. Can’t even get a C?</p>

<p>^ I meant overall.</p>

<p>lol wut </p>

<p>It wont affect my overall GPA??</p>

<p>Yes it will, why wouldn’t it?</p>

<p>I mean they won’t count winter GPA when making admission decisions.</p>

<p>I see but i think i will just take the “W” i don’t wanna risk it.</p>

<p>my GPA will drop below a 3.0 if i get a C</p>

<p>in your tag emails did it ever say that you HAD to complete those math classes?</p>

<p>I think TAG requires u to take 2 math classes correct? Precal and calc are the ones I took already so I think I completed that requirement. What I’m afraid is that u know how we put our planned courses and stuff. If they see I withdrald then they might void my TAG. U think they would?</p>

<p>for tag i only need one math class. But it probably varies from major to major. imo i think you’ll be fine as long as you keep a 3.0. But as i said before it depends on what it said on your tag acceptance email. In that email it says how many math, english, etc classes you have to finish by spring 2011. For example it says for mine for davis that i have to complete 1 transferable math class, 2 english classes, and 60 transferable units with grade c or better by spring 2011. But it is probably different from major to major as something like biology probably has more pre reqs to complete than a humanities major. so you should re check ur tag email for each school.</p>

<p>SIMPLE ANSWER- No your tag won’t be revoked. Tag only requires you to complete one transferable igetc math class. Also it’s okay to take different class than the class u planned on your tag application. You did not know that? But you can definitely stay at your ccc one more year as you often recommend ppl on this forum to do so, Pianocat.</p>

<p>And you could’ve searched some past threads. This has been asked quite often.</p>

<p>Thank you</p>

<p>You have been alot of help : ) now I guess I get to enjoy my winter break more. Lol</p>
