Berkeley ATDP vs. Community College Classes

Pre-College Issues Summer Programs

<p>I got accepted into Writing for College at Berkeley's ATDP, and I got put on the waiting list for Advanced Chemistry at Berkeley's ATDP. I'm not sure whether I will get into Advanced Chemistry or not. I have several choices. </p>

<p>1) Advanced Chemistry at ATDP, Statistics at a Community College
OR
2) Writing for College at ATDP, Chemistry at a Community College
OR
3) Chemistry at a Community College, Sociology at a Community College</p>

<p>Basically, how much credit do I get for ATDP? My school gives no credit for it. How much is ATDP worth? Is it better to raise my GPA by taking two community college classes or one ATDP class and one community college class. Which is worth more?</p>

<p>Thank you! I really need help.</p>

<p>If you are aiming to increase your GPA, I suggest taking chemistry and sociology at a community college. After all, you still don’t know whether or not you got into ATDP. Why miss out on taking college classes for something you’re still uncertain about?</p>

<p>However, there is a special section in the UC application “01” in academic enrichment activities. But thanks.</p>

<p>Anyone else?</p>
