Hey guys! So I know this is the UC forum, but I need some help.
I have a score of 5 on an AP test that may or may not clear all of my lower division major prerequisites for the CSU I want to attend. The problem is I took some courses at CC that are equivalent to those my AP score might clear. Most schools don’t allow double counting so I may lose units once I transfer. It is for this reason that I want to take extra units just in case that ever happens.
Could I take any class I want to make up for those lost units? So I know most CC courses are CSU/UC transferable, but does that mean that they’ll actually give me the units for that class? I was planning on taking a bunch of random electives that are deemed CSU transferable, but I realized many of them have no equivalent at the CSU I want to attend. Does that even matter? I talked to a counselor and she told me any course 1-199 is transferable so I’m assuming any CSU will accept those units even if they have no equivalent at the campus?
Does anyone have experience/know about this? Thanks!!
