CHEMISTRY CLASSES: What is the difference between the 20/30 series and the 14 series?
The 14 series is designed for life science majors. It covers general and organic chemistry, but in fewer (NOT easier) courses . The classes show how chemistry relates to biology and how it can be applied specifically for life science majors. The 20/30 series is geared for physical science and engineering majors, but is the series that is equivalent to general and organic chemistry at most other schools . While physical science and engineering requires the 20 series, life science majors will accept either series for credit. Both series also count for credit toward professional health schools, but if the 14 series is used it must be taken as a whole at UCLA.
