<p>I was just wondering if UC's look at Calculus for Life Sciences 1&2 differently then they do with regular/engineering Calculus 1 & 2? Specifically for UCB and UCSB. I'm by no mean saying it's "easier" but do they see it that way? It's still Calculus so I don't see why they would. </p>
<p>Also, I've read through a ton of old threads and got different opinions on whether or not UC's care about the last math class being completed Spring before transfer. Everything else will be done except that one class in Spring. Will I run into any problems with that? </p>
<p>UCSB is the only one I can think of that wants the math done early, but I can’t find the PDF that says so.</p>
<p>I would call them to make sure though!</p>
<p>Does your intended major accept calculus for life sciences? See <a href=“http://www.assist.org”>http://www.assist.org</a> .</p>
<p>Yes, my major is Economics and most UC’s do actually accept it. My question was whether or not it’s looked at “differently” than just regular Calculus 1 and 2. </p>
<p>And it does look like UCSB is unfortunately anal about completing math by the Fall which is unfortunate. I probably will still apply though. </p>
<p>If you want to go on to PhD study in economics, it would be a good idea to take all of the CC math courses for math majors (calculus, multivariable calculus, linear algebra, differential equations) and then take additional math and statistics courses (e.g. real analysis, calculus-based probability theory) after transfer.</p>
