<p>Basically what you learn in Drake's class doesn't pass onto Segura's class. Have to start all over again. 104B/C/D are continuation of 104A, depending on the professor (Drake/Chang/Tang/Segura), it may be easier or harder. It's not like 101A/B/C where you can pass on some basic applications, ie momentum balance to heat balance to mass balance. </p>
<p>Getting an A in engineering at UCLA? Well, it's basically being in the top 10% of your engineering class, which is like being in the top 1% of your high school class. It's hard to speak in concrete terms since I don't know how smart you are. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Engineering as in.. engineering courses... or pre-reqs. If it's pre-reqs you speak of.. A's are very possible.. just put in the time to do the work and school is EZ.</p>
<p>hey Flopsy,
i was just admitted to chemical engineering as a freshman, but i want to change to electrical engineering now
how can i do this before orientation?
Thanks!</p>
<p>and also, are my chances low for getting into ee, because its really full or something? if i wait to do it during orientation, will i have to write stuff and apply or is it just a matter of
me: "i want ee"
orientation person: "sure no problem! ee is just a click away!"</p>
<p>Thanks for the response TB54, does that mean it isn't really necessary to take 101C for 104D (I know it's a requisite but how much of it will be used, etc.)? I'm BioE and we have our own thermo classes so I'm wondering if that will suffice bc I don't really want to take more thermo. </p>
<p>Sorry for all these questions, I'm trying to figure out what I want to take for my technical breadths. Blah. Thanks so much.</p>
<p>CHE 101C doesn't require thermodynamics. It's more based on mass balances which concerns heterogenous/homogenous reactions. It's more like heat transfer, have to omit terms to see which dominates (convection vs conduction for heat versus convection versus diffusion for mass).</p>
<p>I didn't take CHE 104D, I took CHE 104B. From what I've been told, none of the labs require a true understand of thermodynamics, ie no need to apply like Gibbs Free Energy. They require you to understand like how to write an equilibrium constant, that's about it.</p>
<p>just accepted to 2012 in aerospace, but may flip to mechancal. I took AP Calc-AB in 11th grade (4 on AP test). Now, taking AP stats. once i start UCLA, it'll be 2 years since any calculus! assuming i pass the math diag test, what's your opinion of jumping into 31B after 2 years? I dont remember nuthin!</p>

<p>You won't be able to skip into 31B. You need either a 5 on AB or a 4 on BC to get into 31B, or a 5 on BC to get into 32A. The math diagnostic test only gets you into 31A.</p>

hey! im aerospace too!!!</p>
<p>i'm in the same boat. I took physics B junior year...i don't remember much
[/QUOTE]
You can't skip any classes with Physics B, so you'll start in Physics 1A regardless.</p>
<p>wait a minute...so even though i took ap physics...got a 4...received credit...i still start in physics 1A....as if i've never taken the class at all???</p>
<p>YES!!!!!!! THIS IS PERFECT! my "physics" education is really weak so this is so much better (which is why my ap score was a miracle)</p>
<p>I got accepted with Undeclared - Life Sciences as my major
and I was wondering how hard it was to transfer to the college of engineering because that's what I want to do. I sort of was in a daze when I picked undeclared life science. </p>
