<p>No, that’s more of a private-u phenomenon. Don’t allow as many AP’s. Make those who transfer in retake classes. UC is pretty liberal wrt AP college-credits. One can use them to graduate early as social-science and humanities majors do, or use them as engineering students do to bypass breadth courses to enable them to take more engineering classes. (I don’t know if the first applies to you.) </p>
<p>Anyway, I didn’t see evidence of your being wanting to experience CA, eg, the weather, etc. Just write both off.</p>
