Hi, I am a prospective international student who will apply to UC Berkeley this fall. I am in a major dilemma, I want to become an engineer but I have a thing in my heart, that is to sing songs at hollywood. I also want to become a good software engineer. My seniors who have gone to Berkeley say me to double major in EECS and Applied Mathematics as it will create a good impression on a tech firm recruiter.
But, to become a singer ,the first step is to study music…I love to sing songs and also have appeared in many local events. Will EECS + Music create a bad impression on a tech firm recruiter???
Any suggestion is welcome. Thanks!
