<p>okay, so im a soon to be college freshman. The best college and the college that im enrolled in right now is UCI. But I want to go to USC or a better UC college. I met with a USC counselor and he gave me a community college schedule to take, which completely contradicts what the CC wants you to do, so I am able to transfer in one year if I receive around a 3.8-4.0. So basically if I dont get into USC, I am screwed because I did not take any of the core GE's to transfer into another college and will have to spend another year at the CC (Basically repeating a grade or cramming two years into one). But if I stay at UCI, I think it will be a little to difficult to get A's to transfer to USC and UC to UC transfer is hard enough (plus the quarter system makes it confusing for USC). So, would you play it safe and stick with UCI, or gamble with a CC (which is basically all or nothing)</p>
<p>any idea what you want to major in / do after graduation?</p>
<p>major in business and go to a good or top grad business school afterwards/</p>
<p>Yeah I would play it safe with UCI. You don't have to go to a fabulous undergrad USC-ish school in order to be successful. Depending on what you want to do afterwards, set yourself a goal and work towards it.</p>
