[quote=flu]You graduated at a time when the UC system wasn’t suffering from really constraint budgets… When I was going to school, folks that I knew that went to Berkeley and UCLA engineering couldn’t get the classes they wanted, and when they did, they often complained about class sizes. Funny part is that, I didn’t go to class that often when I was in school.

oh well. $400k for undergrad is just absurd.[/quote]When I went, CS & CE programs were compacted. So yes, there were budget/class size issue too. But I was on top of shit. I registered the minute it’s my turn, so I always got the classes I want. I also finish a lot of my GE at Mesa/Miramar when I was in HS. Which is why I was able to graduate in 4 years with ease while working 30 hrs/week.
