<p>depends what you mean by competing. would you rather be in a classroom where people are all very smart and not particularly competing, but inadvertently competing just by being awesome grade-wise, or one where everyone has basic skills and then dives deep/plays the game well to rip their competition to pieces. either way, choose the class that fulfills your major. either way, look at the syllabi and choose the class where it has less stuff that makes u feel uncomfortable. idk.</p>
