Math classes

<p>On some official looking website I have found, it states:</p>

<p>"Once you have credit for 31A/31B through AP credit, transfer credit, or by taking the course(s) at UCLA, you will not receive unit credit for 3A/3B." </p>

<p>What exactly does that mean? If I received a 4/5 in Calc AB, I know I get credit for 31A and satisfy the qual. reasoning req.</p>

<p>at first, I thought my options were 3B or 31B.
If I have a choice, what are my options? and which should I take? The closest major/minor I'm interested in that might need the 30 series is the accoounting. But it says the 3 series are fine. They can't just change the req to 30 series or can they?</p>

<p>After I take 3C, if I wanted (or needed) to take more math, I would have to skip to 31B, right?</p>

<p>Too many technicalities..</p>

<p>if you ever want to major in econ or biz-econ, you'll need the 31 series. </p>

<p>And if you're thinking of med school, the web page <a href="http://www.math.ucla.edu/undergrad/apcredit.html#Premed%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.math.ucla.edu/undergrad/apcredit.html#Premed&lt;/a> says "Pre-med students should be aware that many medical schools do not recognize AP Calculus test scores as college unit credit."</p>

<p>BTW if it is possible I'd suggest seeing if you can not get AP credit for the 31A and take it at ucla. 2 reasons. First, you'll be familiar with the material and you'll do well in the class. AP credit doesn't help your GPA, classes at ucla do. And we're only talking about 4 units out of the 180 min needed to graduate, so it isn't like the 31A AP credit made your life a whole lot easier. Second, if you take 31B or 3B in the fall you will be "off-track" meaning there may be only 1 class offered. The main class offered fall quarter is 3A/31A and there will be lots of class times to choose from because so many people are taking it. Convenience of your schedule is worth it, believe me ...</p>

<p>Well, I'm not planning on either of the 3. So that leaves me 3C and 31B? What happens if i need a year and want to start w/ 3C; what comes after?..see my questions above</p>

<p>I have no idea how to go about not getting the AP credit. Who would I go to or what should I do? Good advice though.</p>

<p>Perhaps my next best alternative is to take it next semester when many people will be taking it?</p>
