<p>I'm about to start my senior year in high school soon, and I was wondering if I could transfer from Pasadena City College after 1 year of attendance.</p>

<p>The classes I'm taking this year are: AP Environmental Science, AP Gov/AP Econ, AP Statistics, AP Calculus BC, CP English 7/8, and AP Computer Science A (self-studying).</p>

<p>I'm considering doing the Fast Track program at PCC, doing my high school classes along with GE classes. Would this be an absurd idea, considering my schedule? I just want to leave SoCal as soon as possible. I wanted to attend UC Berkeley as a freshman in college, but it's highly competitive, and I could save money this way. Any advice?</p>

<p>Also, I want to major in computer science. Does anyone know how PCC/UC Berkeley's transfer system work in regards to computer science?</p>

<p>You need 60 units to transfer to any UC. If I were you, I’d start now and take as many units as possible at PCC during your senior year. Apply as many AP credits as possible, get TAP and IGETC certified, and its definitely doable within two years from now.</p>
