Classes at UCLA Equal to AP Classes?

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Los Angeles

<p>I apologize if this thread has already been made in the past but I was wondering if someone with experience could provide some information on which of these classes listed below (the pre-med pre reqs) are equivalent to AP Biology, AP Chemistry, AP Physics, AP Calculus BC, and AP Statistics. Plus, are these classes enough to get you accepted into a top medical school (if you take organic chemistry as well)? </p>

<p>Thank You :) :</p>

<p>Biology
Life Sciences 1, 2, 3, 4</p>

<p>Chemistry
Chemistry 14A, 14B/BL, 14C/CL, 14D; plus 153A/L (biochemistry).
Chemistry 20A, 20B/L, 30A/AL, 30B/BL, 30C*; plus 153A/L (biochemistry), Chem 30CL </p>

<p>Physics
Physics 6A, 6B, 6C or 6AH, 6BH, 6CH or 1A, 1B, 1C, 4AL, 4BL </p>

<p>Math
Math 3A, 3B, 3C or 31A, 31B, 32A </p>

<p>Statistics
Statistics 10, M11, M12, 13, Biostatistics or Biomath, Psychology 100A*</p>

<p>AP Chemistry is sort of like Chem 14A/B and Chem 20A/B, but they do go a little bit more in-depth especially for the 20 series. AP Calculus BC is like Math 3A/B and Math 31A/B, but again they go a little bit more in-depth and math tests in college are tougher than high school tests and the AP test FRQs. And yes if you take all of those classes then those will fulfill almost all of the medical school requirements (actually a few more classes than needed such as biochem in some cases, Chem 30C/CL, stats, and psych).</p>

<p>AP credit will not count towards fulfilling your pre-req requirements</p>

<p>^ Not what I’m looking for, I’m only trying to figure out which classes are right for me for the first year (like whether I should take 3 series vs. 31 series for math)</p>

<p>3 vs. 31 depends on what you plan on majoring in. Look at the various majors you are considering and their requirements and go from there. Here is a link to the College of Letters and Science Majors. [Majors</a> - College of Letters & Science - UCLA Undergraduate Admissions](<a href=“http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Majors/lsmajor.htm]Majors”>http://www.admissions.ucla.edu/prospect/Majors/lsmajor.htm) also they will help you decide what to take at orientation.</p>

<p>if ur goal only going to premed and u dont care the major, do life science which is the 14/3 series. 30/31 series is way too hard</p>
