<p>I'm planning to take two summer classes(chem2, calc2) at UC Berkeley.</p>
<p>would that help on my chance to get into UCs? not only UCB...buy any UCs..</p>
<p>are you taking it extension?</p>
<p>what is extension?</p>
<p>From what I've heard, summer programs won't even help you get into the school at which you took them unless you make a really good connection, or can somehow write about them and come off as though you just fit incredibly well into the school's programs/academics/whatever. I don't know anything about UCs, though, and my information comes from an article I read in a newspaper, so you never know. The courses you took don't sound like fluff, so that might count for something...</p>
<p>are u community college student?</p>
<p>I don't think uc care where u took ur classes.</p>
<p>Yeah it's proly a good thing. DO it if u can, but not that it becomes inconvinient for u.</p>
<p>I don't know about UCB, but at UCLA u can take classes if u're not a student there in two ways.</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Extension- open to everyone. not taught by ucla profs usually, most don't even have phD. Not w/ UCLA students mostly. Cost quite a bit. </p></li>
<li><p>UCLA class w/ ucla students and profs, available only if there is a space in a class. proly much harder than extension since u're competing w/ ucla students</p></li>
</ol>
<p>nope. im sorry. please. do not do this. i was advised directly from the admissions director at berkeley not to sacrifice grades from the prestige of the school. </p>
<p>CHEM at berkeley? wow. plus during the summer, PLUS another class? okay have fun bud</p>
<p>dont do it</p>
