Hi! I would really appreciate your help if you’ve been through this program - I don’t know anyone who has and I’m having a tough time making a decision. I was just accepted to the Scholars program at SMC with the hope of transferring to UCLA after two years. I’m wondering if you know if it’s advisable to begin with Math 2 (pre calc) over the summer or should I just take it Fall semester if the summer classes are too rushed? Also, should I be taking 1 or 2 Scholars classes per semester? It seems to be hard to fit all the classes in with the given schedule. Finally, how did you pick professors? Did you find RateMyProfessor to be helpful? Thanks for your help!!!
