<p>I was talking to one of my friends who goes to UCSC and this is going to be his second year as a health science major there and he said the academics are hard and that he had a tough first year. And this guy is really smart, he got a 5 in AP Physics, AP Bio (took Physics and Bio the same day), AP Calculus AB & BC, and AP Spanish. He had over a 4.0 GPA in high school and over a 2000 in his SATs and said he really didn’t study in high school but now has to work his a$$ off to try and get good grades. Also, a lot of it has to do with your major, obviously if your major is something like Theater, it’s not going to be hard as something like Biology, no matter what school you go to.</p>
