In all of the HYPSMC schools, you are not admitted based on what major you choose. Applying as an art major is just as hard as applying as an electrical engineering or computer science major.



Thats not true. When applying to HYPSMC, etc, you specify which college you are applying to: school of engineering, business, college, etc. Each department has different admission standards. Besides, you can petition to change your major to any harder/easier major at Berkeley.
