This is my planned courselist for spring

IB c185 (Human Paleontology, 5 units) (I was told by the professor to take it this semester)
Chem 1A (4 units)
IB 24 (1 unit)
Bio 1B (4 units)
Classics 10B (4 units)
17 units of class and 1 unit of seminar. I have 16 units of class this semester

my two IB classes will definitely be part of my phase 1, but which of my other three courses should be phase 1?

Bio 1B might fill up fast so you might want to sign up for that one. Chem 1A shouldn't fill up fast and I have no idea about Classics 10B.

Wow I haven't been here in a while. Sorry guys.

misterreach: yes there are OOS spring admits.

yayarea510: I think you just need a 2.0 overall to not have your admission rescinded.

Sorry! I have a bunch of questions!

I'm pretty sure that I'll be attending Cal, albeit as a Spring admit. I'm excited, though!
But I can't get my parents to let me sign up for FPF (it's only been a few hours since Cal decisions, so I'm hoping FPF won't fill up by the time I can change their minds!).
If I can't get into FPF, I was wondering if anyone knew:
1. If I attend a community college during the fall semester, how do those credits carry over to Cal? Do they serve as GPA boosters on my Cal transcript once I'm attending classes at Cal? Or do I still have free reign over which credits at the community college I would like to transfer over to Cal that fulfill breadth course requirements? I don't know how the CC transfer credits work, really.
2. If I attend a community college during the fall semester, and I do not want to load up on breadth courses for the following Spring semester at Cal, is my best bet at finishing my breadth courses by the time I apply for Haas (Winter 2009 I'm assuming? I have no idea!) through attending Cal's summer session?
Does Cal even offer breadth courses over the summer?

If I do apply for FPF on time:
3. Will I be presented with the same choices for housing as Fall admits? (I'd like to live in Unit 2 with only one other person!) I'm concerned about this because I don't want to end up in a dorm other than my top choices, and I really don't want to live with 2 other roommates.
4. How likely will I get to room with a Fall admit if she and I agree to write each other down as roommates?

With all these questions, I'm wondering if it would be better for me to just attend my 2nd best option: UCSD for Business Economics?
(Sorry! All my questions make me appear a little needy.)
Thanks!

2.


If I do apply for FPF on time:
1. Yes, but it isn't guaranteed.
2. Possible but you'll need a bit of luck

-. Cal econ and Cal bus are superior to UCSD's. You shouldn't even be considering UCSD for business.
