<p>Thank you very much ucbalumnus… I will consider CIS4A at West Valley. That may be too easy (the instructor [FredGeorge</a> - West Valley College - RateMyProfessors.com](<a href=“http://www.ratemyprofessors.com/ShowRatings.jsp?tid=286292]FredGeorge”>Fred George at West Valley College | Rate My Professors) and the material I mean), while I really want a world-class education from Cal lol. </p>
<p>I also plan to do the same as your above schedule (assume that I get accepted next year first :D), but I will take CS 70 (which I think is not very harder than my CC’s discrete math course) and one CS 61 course. In your opinion, which one of the 61 series is doable in summer session? I remember seeing someone in the Berkeley board said that CS 61A is hard as hell :(</p>
<p>It will serve in your best interest to take CIS4A, as it’ll make you more competitive of an applicant. You’ve got plenty of upper-division courses to finish, if you get accepted to cal, so getting a taste of its fine quality education wont be a problem lol.</p>
<p>Lol, my friend takes it at WVC and he says it’s a joke, even easier than De Anza or Foothill’s first programming course. I’d rather petition for another extra semester (if possible) than destroy my own “data-structure” knowledge. Don’t know why but I’m pretty sure the articulation staff of Cal make a mistake when they make CIS4A equivalent with 61B lol</p>
<p>You can preview the Berkeley CS courses here:</p>
<p>[EECS</a> Course WEB Sites](<a href=“http://www-inst.eecs.berkeley.edu/classes-eecs.html]EECS”>CAS - Central Authentication Service)</p>
<p>Note that the books and Scheme and Python language interpreters for CS 61A are free to download on the web.</p>
<p>You may want to look into the courses at Evergreen Valley, Ohlone, Diablo Valley, or Laney if the West Valley course does not appear to be high enough quality.</p>
