[REPOSTED BECAUSE IT GOT MOVED TO ANOTHER FORUM]

Hello,

I’m a current community college student who is planning on transferring to UC’s (my dream UC is UCLA) in the fall as an economics major. I recently learned that since my major is impacted, it’s strongly recommended that I complete all of my pre-recs in the fall prior to transferring in order to improve my chances. As of right now, I am on track to complete all but 1 of my pre-recs by the fall, and will be completing my last pre-rec (Calc II) in the spring. Would missing only one of the pre-recs help my situation seem less bad? Would strong essays and extracurriculars be able to make up for this weakness in my application? Does anybody know how badly this could affect my chances if I don’t complete all of the pre-recs by the fall? Can anybody shed some light on this situation?

Thanks so much!
