<p>Hello. I have dreamed of going to Cal for a while and found out that I was deferred until the Spring semester of 2008. Now I am reconsidering my college choices and would like feedbak on the following ques:</p>
<p>-How good is the Freshman Extension Program for Fall? I've heard mixed reviews, from "youg et slightly higher GPA's b/c the classes are easier" to "it puts students at a disadvantage becuase you are behind, don't get guaranteed housing, have to take off campus classes, out of the social scene...ect" I just want someone who's been in the program, or a currrent cal student to tell me about it. </p>
<p>I applied for Molecular and Cell biology department/major. Is it impacted? could my deferral be due to that? (I am just curious about the admissions process. I know that I did have some weaknesses in my application)
- Is it "worth it" to go to Cal next spring and do something else (apply for FPF/community college) in the fall? I got into UCLA, Davis, and San Diego as well. Some of them gave me partial scholarships as opposed to Cal not giving me any. </p>
<ul>
<li>Is the biology major better at Cal, UCLA, Davis or Irvine?</li>
