Ah I see.

Can I still do a tag if I have not completed all the courses on assist.org because my local CC does not offer it? What is the max courses I can miss because right now, it looks like I'll be missing 3

Same here, I actually got in UCSB hehe

I'm interested in SLO or UCD, but I'll probably apply to most of the UC's

I'm a chemical engineering major, here. I got accepted to UCSD, but mostly waiting back on UCB as my first choice school. My school offers a lot of the prereqs, but only during certain times each year and they're a pain to take with everything else.
Personally, I think it's not too bad to take calc, physics, and chem at the same time. Currently, I'm taking honors O. chem, electric and magnetic physics, calculus, and java. It's time consuming, but I wanted to take Quantitative chemistry at the same time (I believe my CC is the only one that offers it in California), but turned it down due to 20 unit madness.
As a student though, the classes are only challenging if you don't like them. If you enjoy them, then you hardly notice any problems.

Usually you can do TAG if you take all the courses your community college offers that are listed on Assist. The UC's are aware that many students simply do not have access to all the courses. So if the Assist page says "no course articulated" you should be okay. But if it lists a course and says it's required, then you must take it. Note the courses that are not required but recommended--that is a way to strengthen your application.

For specific TAG info contact the TAG staff at the school you want to transfer to (not your community college counselor as they have too much info in their heads).
