UCSD GE req.

<p>I'm confused with the requirments. Does passing spanish 3 in high school fulfill a GE req for SD? My friend says yes, my counselor says yes, but my sister (who goes to UCLA) says no? If no knows I guess i'll just call.</p>

<p>And... Can I stay in the dorms a day prior to my assigned orientation date. For instance, I signed up for the 26/27 date can I go one day earlier (sunday?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>how would passing 3rd year spanish cover a GE?</p>

<p>I have no idea, but that's what I heard... hmm my sister just said I have to take spanish 102 at a CC.. i don't know anymore</p>

<p>you can cover the language req if u pass AP exam or get 700+ on the respective SATII test.</p>

<p>yeah, you can get credit for passing the ap spanish test (which is a 3 i think). But just taking the highschool class won't help you. But if you took a spanish class at community college that will give you credit.</p>

<p>Woah, really?</p>

<p>Wait. So if I got a 790 on the SAT II Korean test...
Does that cover my foreign language GE?</p>

<p>Cause I'm in Muir, and one of our GE requirements is to
"choose two sequences from: humanities, fine arts, foreign language."
And I was going to take humanities and foreign language, but found out that foreign language is usually not that fun at SD (--> I don't want to take foreign language anymore). I tried to take it during the summer at a CC but didn't fit into my schedule cause I'm going to Korea.</p>

<p>I don't think SAT II scores give you any college credit; if anything, it will onyl allow you to skip a placement test.</p>

<p>A lot of my friends that go to UCs have gotten a perfect score for Chinese and still have to take it in college again.</p>

<p>from REVELLE site (probably goes for other colleges too):<br>
<a href="http://revelle.ucsd.edu/aa/ur/lang.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://revelle.ucsd.edu/aa/ur/lang.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>OR
4. Submit a score of 700 or higher on the SAT Subject Test in a foreign language</p>

<p>next time, try researching the site for yourself bc most ppl on this site dont know anything and dont research stuff themselves either.</p>

<p>Oyama=Owned :p</p>

<p>Unreal, where did I mention in my post that my statement was universal among every college? I was speaking through an anecdotical reference. If I have friends in UCLA, Davis, and Santa Barbara retaking a class, the general assumption is that a good portion of the UCs don't look into the Subject tests for language requirements.</p>

<p>Good game, semantics.</p>

<p>the person asked specifically for ucsd not other colleges. i got straight to the point and you confused him/her more. research please!</p>

<p>You gave Syneria the information for a college (Revelle). I know you're familiar that each college in UCSD runs independently, so getting that site would be relevent for only some people.</p>

<p>Diana (Syneria) is going to Muir next year, so that specific example doesn't pertain to her either, making both of our posts pointless.</p>

<p>Haha.</p>

<p>i guess we both lose! kenny is cool</p>

<p>Yea, you both lose.</p>

<p>Kenny talked too general, and unreal talked about the wrong college.</p>

<p>Couldn't find the information on the Muir site...
Maybe I'll just look through it again... If I ever find something, I'll post it...</p>

<p>And just because I'm bored and I'm happy cause I just finished it, check out my site 8D <em>shameless plug</em> <a href="http://www.brokenpencil.net%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.brokenpencil.net&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Sorry about that.</p>

<p>But awesome job, Diana. I was hoping you'd finish your site soon. After seeing the link in your facebook, I was really intrigued to see some of your art.</p>

<p>Who knows? Maybe we'll take some art course in college. I know you have different areas of focus in your site, but what's your facorite medium for art?</p>

<p>Hey, Syneria, just some helpful criticism on your site. I really like the clean feel of the website, but the side menu feels a little dirty once moving the cursor over it, feeling cluttered with the white boxes seeming out of place with the rest of the site. </p>

<p>Also your server seems to be having issues with your thumbnails (except the sketches) but thats more technical.</p>

<p>Otherwise, very nice looking site!</p>

<p>Your artwork is pretty cool, too. I especially like the wolf in disguise</p>

<p>

<em>_</em> Yea, too bad I hadn't had time for a whole lot of art. Everything I did turned out not to my liking or I never had the chance to finish, so my "art" on the site right now is really more filler art.</p>

<p>As for favorite medium, I really like the digital medium. :) Photoshop, opencanvas, and I'm hoping to learn painter soon. But more "real life" medium-wise, I always love prismacolor markers and color pencils. I used to do a whole LOT of acrylic and poster color, but it's been a long time since I've used those.
Unfortunately, art is not something I see a career prospect in. It's 100% just a side hobby/enjoyment thing.</p>

<p>

Heh, I completely agree. I hate that white a:hover bg. But it's because I couldn't get the white bg off the side menu that pops out, and I just had to get menus to match... Maybe I'll just take the side pop-out menu out and think of some other way to incorporate the sub-sections. @_@</p>

... <em>spazz</em> Where? I don't see it. :( <em>shakes my browser</em></p>

<p>Wish I had more content-wise to put on my site. I have a feeling though that I'd redesign a whole new layout for my site in 3 months time.</p>

<p>Edit: LOL whooo, I sure like to talk, don't I.</p>

<p>Yes you do. And yay! Acrylic paint is my favorite medium to work with, though I'm not that great. Most of my art is mainly pencil sketches I do in class. Because of that limited time I have, I rarely do anything fancy or extravagent, but I do have some nicer pieces in some of my unofficial portfolios that I've kept over the years.</p>

<p>:} I'll post them in my Facebook sometime soon when I find them.</p>

<p>(p.s. 8D Sorry OP for hijacking your thread.)</p>

<p>:> I will be looking forward to them.</p>
