<p>UCB spring admit theory: I wasn’t able to complete my prereqs for philosophy because none are offered at my CCC. Others with higher GPA’s than mine were admitted to phil for fall with no prereqs. I’m thinking that if you’re kinda borderline for phil with no prereqs done, that maybe this leads to spring admission…just a theory.</p>
