<p>spring starts in january… i am completing my pre reqs by summer because i am finishing one next week :)</p>
<p>Accounting isn’t a required prerequisite this year for BizEcon. It will be next year for Fall 2008.</p>
<p>accounting was a fun class i recommend any economic student to take it. But Calc 2 on the other hand was hell.</p>
<p>kamil…
most ccc let you start anytime you are ready, fall,summer,winter,spring…depending on semester system or quarter system. it’s only the UC’s that have a restriction as to when you can apply for a transfer. If you can’t start this fall at a ccc, just start on the semester/quarter after that.</p>
<p>rrrrrr…rr…almost there…sauron. u’re almost there. couple more finals and u’re free…arrrhhh…must…achieve…greatness…glory…superiority…loveliness</p>
<p>three months of summer break. what are u guys going to do? i’m gonna read, go to museums, play chess and loaf around with friend cuz i need to relax and stretch before competing for survival in ucla.</p>
<p>hmmm…lot of people in this forum are going to ucla…and some know that i major in art history…i wonder if they will be smart enough to uncover the identity of SAURONVOLDEMORT…well, they would have to be real clever to do so, cuz luckily i haven’t revealed my name anywhere in this forum and have witheld some of my theories from publication to avoid publicity. </p>
<p>but pretty soon. let’s say ten years from now, my name will fly across the world. i am the solider of God. i’ve vowed to destroy science, evolution theory and what not. </p>
<p>okay… some of u probably will get bored by my egocentric monologue, so i’ll stop here.</p>
<p>[ insert awkward silence here ]</p>
<p>uh…</p>
<p>though i’m curious what everyone WILL be doing this summer. i’m taking a much-needed vacation to vietnam and volunteering for habitat for humanity for 2 months. i almost wish i was going to ucla just so i could get an extra month of free time.</p>
<p>I’ve gotta take one summer class and may be look for a job during summer because I want to make some money while I still have time for it. And yeah, I also have to review my math to be ready for Cal’s upper division classes.
Wow, you’re taking your vacation in Vietnam peep. Have a nice trip. My mom is going back there next month too, and she’s so excited about it.</p>
<p>thanks… i’m pretty excited too. since you’re gonna take math at cal i just want to tell you to go to your gsi’s (graduate student instructor) office hours if you don’t understand anything!! my roommates tell me this is CRUCIAL because even if you THINK you might not be on the ball you really need to get help right away or you’ll really fall behind your peers.</p>
<p>Well this summer I plan on writing a bit. And…finishing my econ textbook. Then I’m going to go all ‘native’ and learn my native language for a couple weeks. Afterwards, I’ll play chess and choose my classes for next year. I really wish I had unlimited time for my hobbies…I’d become like a genius or something before I returned to actual work. Did anyone see toki wo kakeru shoujo? I just watched it-it’s about a girl who can jump backwards in time. Pretty cool, I wish I could just goof around all day like that for like years before going back to college…</p>
<p>I’m transferring to UCLA from a mid-level UC</p>
<p>and I recently received an invitation to join my school’s chapter of Phi Beta Kappa (as a second-year with higher class standing).</p>
<p>This (among other things…like adjustments, re-establishing professor relations, etc) really makes me wonder if going to LA is worth it in the end?</p>
<p>Can I have your thoughts?</p>
<p>PS: I am registered under a different name here, but I created a new name for this post to protect my identity. Whatev.</p>
<p>Edit: o yeah, you can only join phi beta kappa under the school you will receive your degree, so yea…</p>
<p>will i have my acceptance revoked if my gpa drops from cumulative 3.46 to a 2.9 this semester
?</p>
<p>smith415,</p>
<p>E-mail the UC you sent an SIR to immediately. </p>
<p>Stapler,</p>
<p>I wouldn’t let PBK alone decide your degree. In the long-run, people will see the degree more than the accolades.</p>
<p>I did. They said that they have a policy against answering hypothetical questions. My final grades haven’t come in.</p>
<p>Once you get your final grades, then you start worrying. In the meantime, don’t worry about things you can no longer control.</p>
<p>Peep, no ****ing way. I’ll be in Vietnam for a month this summer too, then to UCLA.</p>
<p>cool, insamniac! have fun… what vaccinations are you gonna get, out of curiosity?</p>
<p>I think you get Hepatitis shots…not sure though.</p>
<p>Peep, MMR (booster…I had all my normal shots), and typhoid. I still need to see what/which of Hep A/B I need (I think just B–again, had all the normal shots, and the CDC site doesn’t really tell me which those are, so I need records from my pediatrician and stuff). My CC has MMR and Hep for like, $10 apiece, so I was going to go there.</p>
<p>When are you going?</p>
