<p>yesssss one-year transfers
I’m transferring from a CSU. applied to ucla/ucb as a comparative lit major.</p>
<p>…and I have a question! did you send your AP scores (via collegeboard) to the UCs, in addition to listing them on the application? is it required?</p>
<p>I’m so stressed…I could have an A in English or I could have a C, the teacher is SENILE and never gives any indication. His grading is totally arbitrary.</p>
<p>It’s awesome to see how many 1 year transfers there are. They are really rare at Berkeley which is why I apparently stand out for some odd reason… :/</p>
<p>I skipped 2 years and transferred with a 4.0 but I can’t say I “stand out”, largely because I never developed the ego that you guys did. It rarely comes up, frankly.</p>
<p>Woah, I am a ChE/Materials Science major and I definitely don’t need that many pre-reqs. Gen Chem I and II I need, but Organic Chem is recommended only if you can show a good score on the national exam (forgot the name). I am transferring in one year and AP scores can’t exempt me from General Chem so I am not doing Organic at CC. I am exempted from Bio 1A + 1AL due to AP Bio. I am only required to take Physics I, Calc I, and Calc II; I do need two other major courses though (I chose Physics III and Calc III). I also need English I and II (could have exempted myself from I with a 4 on English Language but I got a 3).</p>
<p>The only time I have seen such a long list of reqs was from UCSD but counselors say that SD isn’t strict about it.</p>
<p>it depends on the school you’re transferring to, not the CC, how many credits you’ll get for the APs. UCLA gives like 8 qtr units for english, the histories, calc, and 4 for env sci… check on the school’s site.</p>
<p>ugh i have a 3.722, 4 As and 1 B for fall. I had no idea that a B in a 5 unit course is worse than a B in a 3 unit course, no one ever explained that to me. -__- Is that the same gpa the UCs will see or do they weigh all classes equally or something? I’m taking 7 units over winter… i better get As in those. :P</p>
<p>bookworm: I’m guessing we don’t send in AP scores until we are admitted?.. I don’t know. I’m going to treat it like my final transcripts I guess. I’ve scoured the forum for answers but haven’t found one so far.</p>
<p>i have a 4.0 so far . . . did have to take an incomplete for english b/c i was hospitalized on the day of the final, but it’s not a required class and i can make it up in spring. only thing i’m worried about is only having 12 credits on my fall schedule now . . . do you think that will seem lazy? i have 5 more credits from a summer chem class (got an A) two years ago and then 28 units from AP and 20 more to go . . .</p>
<p>@nothing<em>at</em>all they use the same GPA u see, units matter here, in HS everything was worth the same amount of units, so it came out to be equal.</p>
<p>btw does anyone know if we have to graduate in 2 years at ucla n cal?
personally I would like to be at one of those schools for 3 years taking the minimum coursework necessary in order to maintain a high gpa while having a pretty active social life/ time for ec’s plus i would be graduating at the time I normally would</p>
