<p>i just completed my first yera at ucla and it is definitely not frowned upon to take lower div. The majority of you classes will be upper div, but you shouuld have some extra units where u can take what u want. @ UCLA I needed 90 units once I came in, and 60 of those units need to be upper div to grad. So I will be done with my major fairly eearly and will take a couple lower div classes just because they are interesting to me/ easy A’s</p>
