<p>If you’re going into Engineering, for sure take Art History and US History. They’ll get you out of GE categories 1 and 4 and make life a little easier. I know you said US Government, though, so I don’t know if that’s the history test or the government and politics test. If it’s the latter, then that won’t count towards a GE and it’d just be another elective.</p>
<p>I came in with 32 units and I’m really happy I did. It’s different for the Engineering school because so many kids come in with 32 units, so it doesn’t really give you a “leg up” on your peers when you’re volleying for the better teachers, but it’s nice to be at their level and not at a disadvantage.</p>
