<p>Im currently a community college student and was wondering if it makes a difference if you take 3 years instead of 2 to finish all of the prereqs to get into uci, ucla, ucb or ucsds engineering schools. I was just wondering if any of those schools look down upon someone spending an extra year in community college.</p>
<p>Doesn’t matter at all.</p>
<p>The amount of time you take to finish does NOT matter. What matters most is whether you satisfy their course work requirements with a decent GPA (generally for UCLA and UCB you probably need at least 3.5 GPA).</p>
