Must Read for ALL UC Hopefuls

We all need to stop acting like we are the sole individual who sought out information from the UC transfer counselors. For the most part we all have spoken with them many times. LOL
I am guilty of this as well and it just should go without saying that we have spoken with the counselor.

<p>Sure thing but it astounds me to hear all of this misleading information about transfers. Ive heard from several people giving advice for incomming first year students telling them to "get involved with student government/clubs" as if its a must for transfering to a good UC. Also I read posts about several people pushing these personal statements as if their as important as GPA. I just read right now on a few posts down someone saying that you better have a good EC list ect... what don't you people understand? Just get a good GPA and you're in... that's it. This isn't highschool where colleges need as many ways as they can to weed students out, this is community college. I think someone should make a sticky post saying just that.</p>
