Transfering from community college to a four year?
1. Okay I started a community college called grossmont college in 2011 and I have been in it till today 2013.
2. I want to transfer to ucsd or ucla and I keep seeing that the minimum credits is 60 and if I go by those rules I would be done by summer 2014 and start UC fall 2014.
3. I went to my counselor and he keeps saying I have to finish my lower division major biochem at the community college and that would make me finish 2015 spring and at UC 2015 fall.
4. I asked a lot of people about doing my major courses in a community college and my sister told me that sometimes community colleges like to tell you to take the courses for your major at there school for the money and later when you transfer the four year university says theses courses are not going to go to your major it prepared you well but they are no good my sisters experience
5. One more thing if I finish the community college with only my general ed what would that make me at a four year college a junior, freashmen? And if I did both my major and general ed what would that make me senior?
It would be great if you guys answered my questions in numbers as I wrote down.
Thank you all in advance and please people with experience would be a bonus. I do not need cheer up advice I need something that is really gonna help me.
Thank you your answers seem to show that you have a background and experience in this.
And I am sorry of the way I phrased my question I guess I just wanted to break it down so people wouldn't feel bored and tired reading an entire paragraph.
Also its taking me long because I started my English and math courses at a low standard and my first two semester I didn't go to a counselor so I just took English and math. Plus its extremely hard getting into classes the school is really not helping when it comes to availability of classes I'm either number 20 on wait lists or I crash.

Adding a question mark at the end of a sentence fragment does not make a question....
1, 2, 3, & 4 are not questions.
5 is a question = it would make you a junior but you would still have at least 3 years to go. No, you would not be a senior if you did all your lower division courses at a JC/CC. You have 2 years of upper division coursework.
But I'll give advice anyways.
- you should take all your lower division biochem classes at the JC. This will save you a bunch of money. Additionally, these are going to be weed-out classes at the UCs and you don't want to get accepted at UCLA/UCSD etc just to be in a bunch of weed-out classes.
Your sister is incorrect. If you are talking the appropriate lower division courses at a Calif community college they will transfer to the UCs.
- the community college does not want you to stick around so they can get paid a few pennies more. The community colleges are not "for profit" schools.
Why is it taking you so long to get through your general ed and lower division major coursework?
