It is not easy to transfer into UCLA/UCB from another 4 year college even if you are transferring from a UC. CC students get the majority of seats then inter UC students then students from other schools. UCLA for example has published data on its transfer students profile and if you google it gives you a very good break down on where students are applying from. For 2014 84 UCI students put in transfer applications and only 17 gained admission, so it is competitive. Total out of 690 UC transfer apps only 150 gained admission.

My best advice would be to go to a cc if you want to go to UCLA/UCB.
