UCLA Bar - for those questions that take less than 5 posts to answer...

<p>About repeating a course, will the repeated course replace my old grade on the transcript, or will it be there but the newer grade is the one used for my GPA?</p>

<p>How do the girls of UCLA compare to the girls of U of Miami?</p>

<p>anyone selling their book for math 32A?</p>

<p>ramocito, usually the lower ranked school has better looking girls, so ima go ahead and say miami has better girls.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I like Miami because it’s got the sun, the sea, the city and beautiful girls, but it’s reputation isn’t so good. And I like UCLA because it’s got the reputation and the sun, but I’m not too sure about its girls.</p>

<p>if the grade you got the first time around was a C- or higher, then the new grade won’t count towards your gpa when you repeat the class</p>

<p>ok…my ucla cumulative gpa prior to fall quarter was 2.64. i got a 3.5 fall quarter and now my cumulative gpa is listed as 2.5 something. is this a mistake?</p>

<p>

<p>You obviously made a mistake somewhere…</p>

<p>If quarterly housing payment is due the 1st of january and financial aid is also disbursed the same day, does anyone know exactly when on january the 1st housing payment is due? like what time ? midnight ? because then its much easier to just pay housing with the financial aid money.</p>

<p>Don’t you usually have 10 days or so to pay housing, even after it’s due?</p>

<p>I’m not sure seeing as I am a freshman and I haven’t paid my first quarter late. But if thats the case then its perfect</p>

<p>im not paying anything until i get my financial aid.</p>

<p>on another note, I got an unusual new eFAN sent to me just a few days ago. seeing as how i never got one this late in the year (i accepted the one everyone gets in july), plus budget cuts, what am i supposed to do with this one?</p>

<p>Isn’t it just the extra $585 to cover the fee increase?</p>

<p>yea i got that one too. its just a mid year fee grant to cover the fee increase.</p>

<p>Have any of you guys taken care of your Writing II requirement and a GE at a community college over the summer? I know that (at LACC, for example) transferrable courses are marked with “UC:CSU,” but how do you know if it covers Writing II or which GE foundation /subcategory it covers? Is this one of those “ask the counselor” things? Not sure if I’m correctly using assist.org.</p>

<p>And do you recommend taking Chem30A and Chem30AL together? What about Chem30B and 30BL?</p>

<p>What type of courses are “easier” to take in the summer? Math? Labs? Anything?</p>

<p>summer: GEs. Writing Classes. actually, most courses should be pretty easy.</p>

<p>has anyone tried using someone else’s parking permit before? how can you get caught? whenever i see the parking dudes they just shine their flashlights and quickly check em…</p>

<p>^ someone rats you out.</p>

<p>For History 1B (a GE for me), I’m having a problem finding the textbook:</p>

<p>Kishlansky
Western Civilization (V1)(7th) Alc
PH Custom, 7, 08
ISBN: 9780205771721 </p>

<p>I was completely unable to find this book anywhere online. (I checked at half, amazon, abebooks, and a few others) Does the part of the listing that says “PH Custom” mean that I can only get it from Ackerman and no where else in the world? </p>

<p>I emailed both the prof. and my TA a while ago–no response yet.</p>

<p>Thanks, anyone!</p>
