<p>Berkeley has two levels of introductory chemistry. One is for students majoring in chemistry or chemical engineering. The other is for students majoring in biology, non-chemical engineering, or whatever other majors need chemistry (though they can take the one for chemistry or chemical engineering majors).</p>
<p>MIT has two levels of introductory chemistry and a materials science alternative. Although any can be used as a prerequisite to advanced chemistry, students are supposed to choose between the two levels of introductory chemistry based on previous chemistry knowledge. All MIT undergraduate students have to take one of these three.</p>
<p>So it is not necessarily a straightforward comparison.</p>
