<p>hi, i'm trying to transfer to UCSD, bioengineering.
due to some budget cuts at my cc in san diego, my schedule has to be rearranged a bit.</p>

<p>on assist.org, it says for bioengineering, it is recommended you take the highest level of introductory computer programming (C++), but at the same time, on assist, it says you can take the C++ intro course OR FORTRAN for engineers class.</p>

<p>now, i heard that fortran is losing favor compared to C++, so i wanted to know - would it make a negative difference in the consideration for admission if i took fortran over the C++ course?</p>

<p>i love how this got like 25 posts in the UC -transfer forum but none here lol</p>

<p>Hi, I graduated from UCSD in BioE. For kicks, I’m just looking back at what it’s like to apply, and giving a helping opinion.</p>

<p>i really don’t think it makes a difference. right now, the class equivalent you are looking for, is called MAE 9. now they have switched to MATLAB.</p>
