Why you say that? That's what I'm trying to do as well. I know that taking history and political science and all that crap sucks

i transferred from a CC (SCC) to USC after 3 semesters at CC. i accidentally took the wrong classes (be careful when dealing with counselors... they have good intentions but i got shafted) so one of those semesters was a waste.

i had a 3.7 and it would have been a 3.8-3.9 but a class i took in high school was weighted into my GPA.

i really wished i had waited another semester to apply to UC's (berkeley/LA) and other schools to open up my options. i think it was a mistake for me to transfer out early.

ahh... regrets

best advice is to get as close to 4.0 gpa as possible and the rest will take care of itself. good luck.

check out your target school and their requirement, most of them update themselve all the time so your classes at CC two years ago have to be taken again in CSU/UC system to get full credit.

they also throw in something called a limiter, it's a set amount of credit you can earn in CC before they will discredit the rest, even if you taken 120 credit in CC(assuming they are all transferable), if the "cap" or limiter is set at 70 unit, you just got rob for 50 unit worth of class

but again, in this economical climate, school is more important than ever

it doesn't hurt to go over your essay with an English professor (hopefully you have good relations with at least one of them). They're there to help you out. That will at least assist you in one of the aspect in transferring out to a 4-year institution.
