Anyone know the average GPA for a Chinese Major at UCLA?

<p>I'm Chinese but I never really formally learned Chinese, would it be hard for me to major in it at UCLA?</p>

<p>Does anyone know the average GPA for a Chinese Major at UCLA?</p>

<p>funnyman,</p>

<p>It's above average, last time I asked. It's not the hardest major at UCLA, but it has lots and lots of busywork.</p>

<p>Do you speak Mandarin at all?</p>

<p>somewhat, my mandarian is understandable to others, but it's pretty basic.</p>

<p>Just take Chinese 1 then, and you'll do just fine.</p>

<p>Thanks, is the average GPA then like a 3.5 for Chinese?</p>

<p>Beats me. Probably something like that. I just remember it being "above average." So probably 3.5 or so.</p>

<p>I'm chinese and I absolutely hate learning chinese. There's no "sounding out" of words. no "spelling out" of words. strict memorization...and theres something like 4000+ characters in the language. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>I'll stick to good ol' Latin based languages, thank you very much.</p>

<p>but hey, if you really want to, go for it! :D</p>

<p>Is there a chinese major? I think there's asian studies, and thats all, right?</p>

<p>Yes, there is a Chinese major. It's located within the department of Asian languages. There is also a Chinese minor.</p>
