Agree with luckie. You don’t need C. I hate to say this but you cannot rely on counselors because there are so many variables depending upon the classes you get in to, etc. My daughter did her own, with my assistance. I don’t know how it was with luckie, but trying to get classes is hard, esp first year and there were so many changes my daughter had to finagle. Also, her counselor screwed up her TAG to UCSB so she was ineligible.

The key is to just get the IGETC sections completed and major prep (#1). If you are applying to more than one UC make sure all prep work is done for the major at each UC, as they vary. If you are hedging bets and picking some UCs where your major req are not complete, find a related major where you have completed the requirements and apply to that.

Be sure to follow your TAG. UCSB and now some others want the math req completed by this fall. So check that part carefully. Read the fine print for each campus TAG as they vary.
