[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless he majors in Economics (not Bus Economics) or another non-STEM pathway with a low threshold of required coursework, he’s not graduating from UCLA in three  years, much less two years, unless he takes a min. of four classes in summer sesh. The AP credits are only relevant for a first year writing and math requirements (classes he’ll likely be required to take will have satisfied those requirements anyway), foreign language requirement (there’s value in that), and filling in any sub-180 unit gaps once he’s met all of his pre-major and major requirements.

He’s looking at 3 years and 1-2 additional quarters if he hustles …[/quote]

He said he’s getting his Cal-GETC certification this summer (I’m guessing through a community college) that will allow him to start UCLA as a junior. There’s also the option for credit by examination if he knows the material already.[/quote]
