Transfer Students UC Transfers

<p>well i am curious as I got a B in my Precal and in Calculus 1 i got an A , so the thing which i am curious about is will the UCs disregard the B which i got in precal?</p>

<p>btw </p>

<p>beers on me this weekend as i got an A in calculus ( just came to knw abt it now ) lol</p>

<p>I do not believe Pre-Calc is even transferable. I checked on assist using my college and a couple of the UC’s. None of them showed Pre-Calc as transferable.</p>

<p>hmmm i think it is , take a look at this thread

<p>Congrats!</p>

<p>If precalc is not UC transferable, it won’t count on your GPA. If it is, it will count on your GPA… simple as that. No matter what, the A in Calc 1 will overshadow your B in precalc.</p>

<p>The thread proves absolutely nothing. If you had done 3 seconds of investigating you would have realized she was applying as a high school student. As far as a transfer is concerned, I would imagine if Pre-Calc is not transferable, as per assist, it would not be included in the UC transferable gpa. Thus, it would not matter much for acceptance. I’m not a admissions officer though. That is just what I would think—especially because he got an A in the UC transferable course (Calc 1).</p>

<p>yes , my bad . The girl was applying from a high school , I am sorry. </p>

<p>Okay so i just looked at the catalog of la valley college <a href=“http://www.lavc.edu/fall09/lavcfall09_070709.pdf[/url]”>http://www.lavc.edu/fall09/lavcfall09_070709.pdf&lt;/a&gt; and searched for pre-calculus in the pdf file , it says that it is uc and csu transferrable </p>

<p>anyway even if it is, the A in calc overshadows the B in precalc right? as it harder than precal</p>

<p>Pre-Cal is definitely a transferable class. It showed up on my DPR (for unit credit) for UCLA and it was factored into my transferable GPA.</p>

<p>Pre-calc IS a transferable class. A B in pre-calc will affect your transferable GPA.</p>

<p>What do you mean by “overshadow”? Since Pre-calc and Calc 1 are entirely different courses, an A in Calc 1 won’t just erase your grade from Pre-calc. I also got a B in Pre-calc and an A in Calc 1, and both courses show up on my DPR.</p>

<p>depends on where you apply. if calc is important for your major then its good, but if your major is competitive, then the b in precalc won’t help. the A in calc won’t cancel the b in precalc. following your logic, then the people who only took calc and got an A and didn’t take precalc should be in better standing then you right?</p>

<p>Yes, Pre-Calc is transferable. My bad. It is covered under the Mathematical Concepts and Quantitative Reasoning portion of IGETC.</p>
