Transfer to UCB question

<p>Hi all, </p>

<p>From: UCI Computer science and engineering
GPA: 3.75
Sophmore in fall 2008/2009
To: UCB and UCLA junior year fall 2009</p>

<p>my question is: if i am planning on switching my major to math eventually, should i apply for that major? would it be 'easier' for me to get in as a math major or a computer science (or any other cs related majors) applicant?</p>

<p>Also: is the math department in the school of letters and sciences? does this mean i have to fulfill the UC Reciprocity Agreement? (i have not taken many breadth courses in my freshman year, so i will have to finish all of them in the next 2 quarters. )</p>

<p>Any other tips and suggestions much appreciated. also... will someone chance me? what else do i need to provide you with..</p>

<p>thanks all!</p>

<p>UCLA math has a high transfer rate. not many people want to major in math.</p>

3

<p>So is math part of the school of letters and sciences?</p>

4

<p>Yeah, it's in the school of L&S. And I wonder why more people don't major in math because it can lead to an extremely rewarding career...</p>

<p>As a transfer, you should definitely apply for the major you hope to pursue.</p>

<p>Math isn't that bad to get into for Cal. CS however is much harder.</p>

<p>Thanks all for the responses. But mobilemayhem, how do you know that math is less competitive than CS?</p>
