<p>I am a Sophomore from UCSB that changed colleges from College of Engineering as a Chemical Engineer to the College of Creative Studies for Chemistry. I performed this switch because I was looking for the best chemistry education available to me, and it was obvious after a quarter or two that Chemical Engineering even at a top school for the major wasn't the same thing. </p>
<p>Now it's past the UC application deadline, and I have decided that I want to see my options if I get out of here and look for the best thing possible, because I would feel ignorant to say the best I can do is stay here. </p>
<ul>
<li>Secretary for Chemistry Club of UCSB</li>
<li>Co-founder for UCSB Smash Club - Resigned as President but made sure club was kept running because Super Smash Bros. is a good community alternative to drinking in my opinion, it currently has 30+ people every Saturday night</li>
</ul>
<p>Those are the most important points of any application I would write, in my opinion.
Now, in terms of a Chemistry education, where would one say I should aim for realistically?</p>
<p>Im not exactly sure how it works for a UC-UC transfer but im prettyy sure that if you have 120+ you cant transfer out to another UC. is your unit total including APs? if transfering to another UC doesn’t work out for you, you should go private.
but hopefully someone can prove me wrong.</p>
<p>If you haven’t already applied to any UC schools this last November, then by next Fall you will be disqualified because you will have too many units… Well, maybe not… I guess as long as you don’t take any more than 29 units by next Fall 2012 you may be okay. It’s probably not worth it considering that fact. Actually it may be less than that because the max units is (80 semester) units at most schools… Here go to this thread:</p>
<p>That should give you what you’re looking for in terms of qualification. If you can’t transfer maybe consider going to a better graduate school??</p>
