Minimum course pattern requirements

<p>Hey all,</p>

<p>First post here. That aside, I'm a student currently attending a four-year university on the east coast. I'm hoping to transfer to a UC school, preferably Berkeley or LA, as a junior transfer. While researching how to transfer to Berkeley's College of Letters and Sciences (I', an econ major), I came across its R&C requirements, which state that transfer hopefuls have to take a sequence of R&C classes. I haven't found these requirements for any of the other UC schools. So, my questions are:</p>

<ol>
<li>Are the R&C/Quantitative Reasoning/Foreign Language requirements relegated only to Berkeley?</li>
<li>If not, do completing the R&C classes count towards the minimum course pattern requirements (<a href="http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/transfer/requirements/minimum-requirements/index.html)?%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://admission.universityofcalifornia.edu/transfer/requirements/minimum-requirements/index.html)?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li>
<li>Do completing the minimum course pattern requirements count towards completing UC Berkeley's L&S Seven Course Breadth?</li>
</ol>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Also, do AP credits count towards the course pattern requirements?</p>

<p>I’d worry more about getting a 4.0, since that’s pretty much what you’ll need including all the ECs. You’re pretty much at the bottom of the totem pole in regards to being able to transfer, as CCC students have the most priority, then in state, then out of state.</p>

<p>Duly noted, but I can’t even apply if I don’t fulfill their minimum requirements correctly, right? Gotta worry about that first.</p>
