<p>[Cognitive</a> Science major](<a href=“http://sis.berkeley.edu/catalog/gcc_view_req?p_dept_cd=COG+SCI]Cognitive”>http://sis.berkeley.edu/catalog/gcc_view_req?p_dept_cd=COG+SCI) requires about 15 courses.</p>
<p>[Economics</a> major](<a href=“http://sis.berkeley.edu/catalog/gcc_view_req?p_dept_cd=ECON]Economics”>http://sis.berkeley.edu/catalog/gcc_view_req?p_dept_cd=ECON) requires about 12-13 courses, one of which overlaps with Cognitive Science (Math 1A).</p>
<p>Assuming you take about 32 courses over four years, that means that the 26-27 courses for the two majors will leave you room for about 5-6 other courses for breadth requirements (R&C and 2-3 of the [7-course</a> L&S breadth requirement](<a href=“http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/requirement/7breadth.html]7-course”>http://ls-advise.berkeley.edu/requirement/7breadth.html) that cannot be fulfilled by courses in the major; some course somewhere needs to be an AC course also). A tight squeeze, but doable, assuming that the requirements commonly fulfilled in high school (AH&I, ELW, QR, FL) have been fulfilled in high school.</p>
<p>Of course, if you have AP or transferable community college credit that fulfills some requirements (e.g. Math 1A or R&C), you would get more breathing room in schedule space. Also, if you are willing to take overload schedules or summer sessions, that would also give more breathing room.</p>
