If you applied for EECS and get in, you won’t have to worry about grade or GPA to stay in the major beyond C / 2.0.

I applied L&S to Cal, honestly because I was in a bad place at the time and I just wanted to get in. I hear the three weed out courses to declare CS have a 50% fail rate.

If you have to worry about clearing the bar in order to declare CS at Berkeley’s L&S, your chance at MIT, honestly, isn’t going to be very good.
