How to graduate in three years?

<p>My friend graduated from UCLA in three years and i was wondering. How can you get a bachelors degree in economics in three years? What is the course load?</p>

<p>16 major classes(including a writing II) + 10 GE’s + 2 electives = 28 classes.</p>

<p>You can eliminate econ 1, econ 2, and math31AB through AP’s. Fulfill all the other reqs via AP’s as well. So let’s say 24 classes.</p>

<p>Comes out to a very manageable 3 classes per quarter for 8 quarters, or one quarter short of 3 years.</p>

<p>^Yeah, it’s quite easy to fulfill the econ department requirements. </p>

<p>The bigger obstacle is fulfilling your upper div requirements as well as your overall credit requirements. That may force you to take 4 classes some quarters. </p>

<p>Coming in with unassigned AP credit helps a lot. Every credit counts. -.-</p>

<p>I have passed the us history, Spanish, English language, and chemistry AP exams and say I pass the micro Econ, calculus bc, and English literature tests. How many classes does that knock off?</p>
