JET- that has to be something new... i never read that b4 or seen anyone post it. I mean even this year people with units from 4 years and CC that had excessive units where rejected. I wonder if maybe most people always mixed the 4 year work with the CC work and didnt stay exclusively at CC after the 4 year.


KitKat- I went to UCLA- so i know of only a handful easy GEs for that school, i am not sure about UCSD that is why i gave the example of "life studies" - at UCLA there is a course in the Community Health Sciences Department that is basically about adapting to college life, that is an easy A, and there is a few others. I am not sure if UCSD has a website where they review the teachers, but UCLA has one dedicated only to UCLA teachers. Consider going on the UCSD boards and asking for an easy GE list.

Malishka: I am going to UCLA, not UCSD. I think you might have gotten confused because I wrote UCSD in response to the person whose member name started with UCSD. (I hope that makes sense ) Do you happen to know the address to the site where they review UCLA teachers?

Yep KitKat, i read the UCSD that was in reply to the name and assumed you went there.

there is an Easy film GE being offered online this summer. It is screen writing 4 upper div units. It is online though but it is the same teacher that has the rating of being the EASIEST on bruinwalk.
A couple of film courses are pretty easy IF you attend discussion- a lot of points for attendance... and well you do have to go to watch the movies. Usually it is a bunch of movie watching and about 3 easy essays, which is not much work and the movies are great.

Community health sciences- there is a seminar in this summer with an easy teacher too about "health Services"

hmmm, online, huh? That would be ideal for me so I don't have to waste my time commuting for just one course. I'll check it out...thanks.

Since we are not technically UCLA students until the fall, do we have to pay the higher fee reserved for visiting students in the summer?

No clue about that.. . i dont think you are considered visiting but i guess maybe.

Financial aid and everything for Summer is part of the FOLLOWING year, so i am assuming that you would get the same fee as a student because summer counts as part of 2008-2009 school year.

Ok, thanks! I thought for sure most of the summer school classes would be full but there are still plenty of classes to choose from. I guess UCLA students like to take the summer off.

lol, actually all the ones i know that are there (all of them started there as freshmen) are attending summer school.

One girl I know is taking 4 classes. Two in Session A and two in Session C! -_-*


she isn't worried about it, though. She isn't even stressed out about school, at all. Of course she's a bio major with a 3.8 GPA... she'll be a junior.

So maybe she's just a genius? lol.

Summer is not full because the enrollment cap is usually huge for summer courses,or there isnt one at all. UCLA has a lot of student and they know that during regular session you may not get the courses you need so during summer, what i have noticed, is that most of the courses have much larger or no enrollement caps (it will say 999- and i dont think that many students ever register for 1 class)

damn...a bio major with a 3.8 at UCLA? Good for her.

ohhhh, gotcha. I wondered why there were so many classes still open. I wasn't aware they made the enrollment cap higher. I honestly wasn't planning on going to summer school, but I seriously think I might take two classes in session c now.
