<p>Hey, the pre-reqs do not take long to do if you plan out carefully what to take, a lot of transfers make the mistake of taking unnecessary courses. People need to spend time to maximize the benefit for every class, as for the 20% acceptance rate, that is true there are a lot of qualified people. However, 20% is high considering its the top 5 undergraduate program in the country, with 90% of transfers coming from California Community Colleges. I am confident, but with that many people applying you never know what they want. I decided to go to LA anyways, I like the area a lot better, berkeley is too ghetto. I’ll consider it for grad school.</p>
