Confusion about GE requirements

<p>I'm most likely going to apply to the film school junior year...but they have different GE requirements than L&S, like only 2 science classes as opposed to 4. How do people work around that if they don't know whether or not they'll be in the school until junior year?</p>

<p>Also, is there no math requirement or what? I didn't see one on the L&S or Film requirements, yet everyone has to take a math diagnostic test?</p>

<p>I’m confused about this too. Anyone know? :)</p>

<p>I would think that they require you to have a backup major, which is where you would use the extra courses. As far as GEs go, you can take them at any time as long as its before you graduate (e.g. engineers save up GEs as breathers during later years)</p>

<p>I think the math diagnostic test may be used for the quantative reasoning? or logic requirement? Don’t quote me, I’d dig into it further and post up the answers for us : )</p>

<p>Oh, that’s true. But I didn’t see any quantitative reasoning/logic requirement for L&S or Film…Can you link me to the page where it tells you the info about it, because I can’t find it?</p>

<p>The Math Diagnostic test is just to see if you qualify for Precalc or Calculus (or lower). I don’t think you have to take it if you don’t plan on taking any math courses. Philosophy 31 is a fun course too.</p>

<p>Oh, wow! I got a 600 in math, so I don’t have to take any math classes ever again? That’s really awesome. Thanks for the info! :)</p>
