UC- Summer School

Can some one share their experience taking summer courses in a UC.

I am a Freshman in high school and was looking for some summer classes. I am interested in taking Introduction To Psychology at UC Santa Cruz.

Will taking this course be equivalent to taking AP Psychology. The course will give me 5 credits and will appear on my school transcript.

I haven't taken a summer course at a UC, but I can say that yes, college summer classes are seen as equivalent to AP classes. The Introduction To Psychology class will demonstrate the same amount of rigor or academic ability as AP Psychology, and it will award the same number of credits. Hope this helps!
