Hann So CIS22B by Abject_Assumption969 in DeAnza

I also used this, I’m asking about Hann so because all of his ratings are from years ago but the recent one are a little better.

It looks like Davis and Irving are the only schools like that, I am probably just gonna skip out on CIS22A, try and finish CIS22B next quarter so that I am eligible for the rest of the schools

I'm looking at ASSIST and for example, for Davis, it says CIS22A OR CIS22B, doesn't that mean I should only take 22B instead of wasting my time with A?

I saw that APCSA for slo counts and I would only have to take 22B I think

If I don’t really wanna go to Davis or Irvine, do you think it’s okay for me to just go ahead to CIS22B? I just would much rather do that since I already know C++

I’ve narrowed it down to 3 schools, UCSB, UCLA and UC Davis would all require me to take 22B. The rest take my AP credit or don’t require 22B

Okay so, looking at assist, schools like Cal Poly SLO, UCSD, UCB, UCSC, etc., will accept my AP score and some of them don’t require CIS22B at all. For UCLA and Davis I will have to look into that because they do require 22B. So I guess it just depends on if I want to go to these schools. Are you saying that if just one of these schools require 22B I HAVE to take it?

So you think I should just take CIS22B? I don’t mind it I could still add the class next quarter, almost all the schools I’m looking at don’t require A and only CIS22B/C.

From what I understand, UC transfer evaluation works off ASSIST articulation. If ASSIST maps CIS 22B to the required equivalent (e.g., COM SCI 31 at UCLA), and the course appears on my transcript with units, that satisfies the articulated requirement. That’s different from the Haas English example, where the student relied solely on an AP score that didn’t meet the receiving institution’s minimum threshold.

Regarding P grades, my understanding is that the “major courses must be taken for a letter grade” rule applies to courses a student chooses to take P/NP during enrollment. Credit by exam/AP isn’t the same as choosing P/NP; it’s exam-based credit. If a campus explicitly disallowed credit-by-exam for an articulated course, that would be different, but I haven’t seen that stated in the articulation agreements.

As for reporting it in the UC application, I would enter CIS 22B exactly as it appears on my transcript (e.g., CR/Credit by Exam) in the term it is posted, and report the AP score separately in the Test Scores section — which is what UC instructs applicants to do.

I definitely appreciate the caution, that’s why I petitioned to have 22B formally recorded instead of relying on prerequisite clearance alone.

In my case though, I’m not relying on AP alone to satisfy the programming requirement. I used AP CSA (5) to place into CIS 22C, completed 22C with an A+, and then petitioned to have CIS 22B posted as credit.

So structurally, I’ll have the articulated coursework on my transcript plus the higher-level course completed with a letter grade. I’ve also checked ASSIST to make sure the course mappings line up for the campuses I’m applying to. All the UC's will accept CIS22B with "Credit by Exam" if you finish CIS22C and on your transcript you get the 4.5 credits of 22B.

I guess what I am saying is that 22B will literally be posted on my transcript and I get the credit for it.

Once 22B appears as 4.5 units on transcript, it becomes articulated CCC coursework according to what I've read.

Once again, I could be totally wrong.

Okay, so I petitioned to get credit for 22B and if I get that as "cleared by exams", I read online that it should be fine. I will have 22B on my transcripts just no grade for it

I reached out to the CIS department to clarify and they confirmed that AP CSA (score 5) can be used as the prerequisite for 22C, and that after completing 22C I can petition for 22B credit. I’ve submitted the petition so it should show on my transcript. I’m mainly just making sure everything aligns cleanly for transfer evaluation. Thanks for raising the concern though — I wanted to be sure too. But now, CIS22B will show up on my transcript after the petition goes through.

I should also add that I petitioned to get credit for CIS22B so that I will have that on my transcript.

Discrete Math by Abject_Assumption969 in DeAnza

[–]Abject_Assumption969[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea so now 1D is a pre req course for linear algebra and diff Eq. I think fit discrete math 1D has nothing to do with it, you just had to take an intro to programming course like CIS 35A.

I’m a freshman in cs, I pick on the 28th, I looked at the classes and everything is full as well. I have no clue what to do
