From my experience, many people who come to Berkeley were highly bright and motivated individuals in high school. They loved to take the more advanced classes and see how many APs they can cram into one year. Unfortunately, at Berkeley, no one really cares what classes you’re taking and when you’re taking them, except that you finish all your required courses and you do well in them. And it’s much harder to do well in them than it was in high school. Some people learn this the hard way.

If you drop UGBA 10, focus on Econ 1 since that’s going to be the important one.
