<p>The GE requirements are the same within the same college.

<p>Do I see no Math in GE requirements? Cuz I cant find it there.</p>
<p>There is no math GE requirement, only math requirements within the majors </p>
<p>For Poli Sci, it is either PS6 or Stats 10 (I believe)</p>
<p>awesome thank u so much!!</p>
<p>wait so each student has to take the number of courses listed under foundation of arts and humanities, society and culture, and scientific inquiry?</p>

<p>That is correct. However, I HIGHLY recommend taking at least single variable calc.</p>
<p>Why single variable calc? Even for Poli Sci?</p>
<p>i recommend taking ps6 instead of stats 10, cuz ps6 is more applicable and not just useless math. specifically, try to take ps6R which is taught by zaller and is joint with ps50R (taught by posner)</p>
<p>chicgeek,</p>
<p>I'll tell you why: Regression analysis. If you ever actually get serious with poli sci, you'll more than likely end up doing some regressions. In that case, it helps to have at least single variable calc under your belt. </p>
<p>You'll find that at least in American and a lot of comparative, there's a lot of number crunching in poli sci.</p>
<p>ooh interesting! thanks uclari</p>
<p>So say if im a History major...I will have no math for GE and no math for Major requirement so no math 4 years at UCLA? This is wonderful</p>
<p>No, but you should still take at least a stats course...</p>
<p>But if I wanted to take no math at all, I wouldn't be required to do so right?</p>
<p>No, as long as your major doesn't require it, you won't have to.</p>
<p>But, if you plan on going to grad school or having any employment that has any sort of quantitative element (a lot does today) having at least stats is important.</p>
<p>alright..thank you</p>
<p>do you need to take stats? what if i just want to take calculus?</p>
<p>You have to take stats or PS 6.</p>
<p>what is ps6?</p>
<p>PS 6 is Introduction to Data Analysis</p>
