Hi all! I am an incoming freshman at UCLA majoring in computer science.

I currently have an Apple Macbook Pro and was wondering if anybody has any insight on whether or not my current computer would be sufficient for class. I know that engineering students typically need certain computers in order to run the special engineering software programs…not sure if this applies to CS as well.

If I do need a specific computer, does anybody have good, preferably affordable recommendations?

Thanks so much!

hi all,

i am an incoming freshman at UCLA from ohio. for orientation, i was planning on just going to the latest session that they offer (which is sept 10, and move in starts on sept 16) since i'm from so far away, it didn't really seem worth it to fly out to cali for orientation just to fly back out again for move in. yet, i am also worried that going to the last orientation session will mean that i get the worst classes that aren't even required for my major, rendering my first quarter at ucla basically a waste of time and energy. has anybody gone to the last orientation in previous years and can speak on their experience? for reference, i am a computer science major
