UCSD POLITICAL SCIENCE (IR) Question

<p>Hey guys, I’m mostly likeley going to UCSD as a Politcal Science (IR) major, and wanted to know if anyone one knew what it was like. ex; work load, good or bad experiences, the classes, etc. Thanks!!</p>

<p>my ex bf is at ucsd as a poli sci...he's smart, but no genius. If he wanted, he could graduate a year early, so I'm thinking the courses aren't too rigorous</p>

<p>tncpauld: I thought you go to UCSB? (from your post in the Ucsb!? thread), are you transferring to UCSD and why?</p>

<p>Because San Diego has a great political science department, and 2 years here was all I could ever ask for. After going to SB I dont need the social aspect of college so much, and I just want to go somewhere where I can crack down and focus on my studies. Plus the internship oppurtinties around here arent that great either.</p>

<p>by the way, you think 3.5 is good enough to for inter UC transfer?</p>

<p>tncpauld: 3.5 sounds good to me but I know the UC's put first priority on community college transfers, and then lastly on transfers from other 4-year universities.</p>

Haha is UCSB that distracting? Well, say you had to do polisci IR at UCSB, I don't think you're gonna NOT be able to find a job. What do you plan to do, law school after undergrad? Or straight to work?</p>

<p>here's a helpful resource with acceptances rates of transfers for UC's:
