Physics at De Anza

<p>I'm a an upcoming high school senior who will be taking Physics at De Anza in the fall, winter, and spring quarters. I am interested in majoring in either Chemical Engineering. I've checked assist.org, and it says that the lower engineering prereqs consist of the Physics 4 series.</p>

<p>I might take the Physics 2 series, since I haven't completed Calculus 1A yet, but I was wondering if colleges like UC Berkeley or UCLA would accept Physics 2A, 2B, and 2C for credit for the Chemical Engineering prereqs. If I took the Physics 2 series next year, would I still have to take the equivalent of the physics 4 series at any UC? </p>

<p>I am asking this because I don't want to start over in physics in a UC, since I'll be taking physics at De Anza anyways. On the other hand, would I be better off finishing at least Physics 4A and 4B in my high school senior year after fulfilling the Calculus 1A requirement?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>You won’t be able to take 4A until you have done cal 1a and have concurrent enrollment in cal 1b. </p>

<p>" I was wondering if colleges like UC Berkeley or UCLA would accept Physics 2A, 2B, and 2C for credit for the Chemical Engineering prereqs."</p>

<p>See what assist.org says for each school, 2A is mostly for bio majors not engineering.</p>

<p>for engineering you HAVE to take the calculus based physics classes</p>
