Hi guys so I’m an applied math major and I’m trying to apply to the cs major for comprehensive review in Spring 2027. Basically to apply I need to complete all the PREREQS or be in progress with all of them at the time of application, so I plan on taking 61b in the fall and then cs70 in the spring WHen I apply. However, I’m still continuing my applied math prerequisites as admission into the major is not guaranteed so I’m planning on taking math 55 this summer at a CCC. I know that the letter grade won’t go into my UC GPa because it’s a transfer course, but I also just learned today that I won’t get credit for CS70 or any gpa credit for CS70 when I do take it at Berkeley next year. I want to get 55 out of the way this summer, but is this a wise choice? I can’t substitute 55 for cs70 BECUSSE im not double majoring in cs and math but just wondering if you guys know any downsides of taking math 55 at a CCC and transferring it over to my UCB transcript. Professorplum pls help me🙏🙏thank you guys so so much for your time!!
