<p>Looking at the pre-requisite work for a CS degree at UCLA - it’s almost identical to Berkeley’s prequisites for EECS. Since I want to keep UCLA as my backup school, I intend to complete all UCLA prereqs for CS. Knowing this, would it be a good idea to apply as EECS for UCB (considering the fact that i’ll have required coursework done anyway)?</p>
<p>I would prefer CS L&S over EECS only because of the pre-reqs i get to avoid. However, considering the UCLA situation, I would choose EECS > CS L&S because I’d be doing EECS coursework anyways. </p>
<p>What are your thoughts/opinions on this?</p>
