If you look in the Fall 2011 schedule, EE 42 has the same lecture time and room as EE 100, and EE 43 has the same lab times and rooms as EE 100. But grading obviously differs, since EE 42/43 would have two separate grades instead of one grade for the combination, and EE 43 is offered only P/NP. Here is a course home page for a previous semester – see the grading policy at the bottom: http://rfic.eecs.berkeley.edu/ee42/

It does seem odd that the supposedly “lesser” version of the course for non-majors is listed as an upper division course (EE 100), while the version of the course for majors is listed as a lower division course (EE 40).
