Transferring This Fall Question about Major Req

Transfer Students UC Transfers
1

<p>What happens if one of my major requirements is a science series
Planned transfer to UCLA, UCB, UCI, UCSD</p>

<p>But right now I'm probably barely passing Physics 1 and I'm worried that I might not pass it, last day to drop with W is this Friday</p>

<p>Its required for my major, It would be the only class I'm missing</p>

<p>I'll have my IGETC Finished by Winter Session and I have a 3.9gpa Currently (UC Transferable)</p>

<p>I've signed TAG For several schools like UCI
And I currently have finished 59 units (Not Including Fall)</p>

<p>What happens if I miss this one major requirement class?
Will I get rejected?</p>

<p>I Also have a lot of extra curricular activities
Such as volunteering 100 hours, got a certificate
2 Semesters on Deans Honor List
Working at School as a Computer Lab Assistant</p>

<p>(My Major is also Computer Science) So the Lab Assistant should help</p>

<p>I've been in a school club, and treasurer for two semesters now</p>

<p>I think I can pass with a C if I incredibly study for the next 2 tests + Final
But this class is really tough, I should've taken Chem :( Since I was better at it</p>

<p>Any Suggestions, I just want to know about the dropping Issue with a W and being able to transfer</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Why don't you take the W and take Chemistry or the class you are in now this coming spring?</p>

<p>Wouldn't that hurt my chances of getting in</p>

<p>If I drop physics 1 with a W, and take chemistry I'll be missing one major requirement
because I have to take a science series
Physics 1 -- > Physics 2, etc
If I drop Physics 1
and take Chem 101 in spring
I'll be missing Chem 102 major req</p>

<p>Thats the only one though</p>

<p>Wouldn't that basically cut my admission for not finishing sciences?</p>

<p>I'm also going to talk to a counselor at UCI to see what they think, maybe they'll let me through a summer course hopefully </p>

<p>Thanks for reply!</p>

<p>a few W's are not gonna hurt you. but you need to understand that UC Admissions are gonna pay close attention to your Fall 08 grades. If I were you, I would try my butt off and get a C! seriously, C is not going to kill you honey! My bf got a C just before he transfered! (he is now attending USC)</p>

<p>hope it helped =)</p>

<p>Yeah this teacher is really tough, his tests are extremely hard
Well I probably don't get physics 1 that well</p>

<p>Yeah At this point I'm going to try my work my butt off, seriously got to get through this semester</p>
