<li>is it a smart idea?/does it work?</li>
<li>how hard is it to switch to the major I want, say, biology, pharmacology, premed, or nursing?</li>
<li>which majors are the most obscure if it is?</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li><p>It won’t matter much here since bio is not an impacted major at UCI. </p></li>
<li><p>It depends on the major. Bio is easy to switch to. Don’t know about pharm. Premed is not a major. Nursing is impacted, so its hard to get into.</p></li>
<li><p>You declare a primary major and an alternative. I would apply primary for nursing, and alternative for biology.</p></li>
