<p>i've already planned second sem courses with my counselor (i'm a freshman).</p>
<p>i'm planning to transfer for sophomore standing, but heaven forbid i get rejected and have to wait another year, what do i take as a sophomore?
what did YOU take as a sophomore transfer?</p>
<p>by the end of freshman year, i'd already have all of my general ed requirements</p>
<p>Having asked about 3 schools now, the distinct answer is to take what you want. The grades are what matter, and how prepared you are for your major.
With that being said, don’t just take easy 4.0 classes just to transfer. Getting prereqs done in your major would be pretty beneficial.</p>
<p>Traditionally universities only formally allow the majority of students classified as incoming freshman or as a junior transfer. Less competitive state and private schools may be a bit more flexible but that is more the exception than the rule formally speaking. The only other way is under extreme or bizarre circumstances or if you have lots of money and/or parents have political pull.</p>
<p>A typical university level academic curriculum for the kind of students they want should have completed at LEAST…</p>
<p>English 1 and 2
Precalc Trig and Precal College Algebra
Calc 1 and 2
Gen Chem 1 and 2
Comp Sci 1 and 2 (or lab)
Econ 1 (micro) and maybe 2 (macro)</p>
<p>plus </p>
<p>1 year of Arts/Humanities
1 year of Social/Behavioral
1 year of Bio/Physical sciences plus a Lab
1 year of US, World History and/or West Civ
1 year of PE with a Health or Nutrition class
1 year of Philosophy and/or with Critical Thinking
1 year of a Foreign Language
1 year of Business or Accounting</p>
<p>plus state requirements are always good too…
