<p>It sounds like you have it worked out. Just so you know… I have heard that transferring into the sciences can be much harder than transferring into the humanities: More pre-requisites to complete at the CC and the classes are harder. I agree with the previous poster: Be sure to spread the hard courses over several semester and don’t take them all in one semester. Also: While it’s great to have a goal and to strive towards that, please realize that there are plenty of other great schools besides UCLA.</p>
