<p>I know EE 105 only has 40 listed as the "official" prerequisite, but is there anything learned in 20 that would help? Fourier transforms? Laplace? I'm not very familiar with the curriculum of either class, so I'm hoping to find someone here who's already taken both.</p>
<p>I'm taking EE 40 right now (currently on filters) and need to make a decision for spring.</p>
<p>Nope. EE20N is mostly a math course. EE40 is mostly a circuits course. The only possible benefit you'll get will be basic frequency analysis, but you'll get it in EE40 anyway.</p>
<p>Thanks. How bad is the workload for 105, by the way? Would 61C, 20, and 105, and a humanities class in one semester be too hard? I'm not very efficient when it comes to studying, and I'm feeling slightly strained with 40, 61B, Math 55, and another three-unit class this semester. Right now, 61B is easily the worst of the bunch.</p>
<p>If you are having trouble with 40, 61B, math 55, and a 3-unit class, then 61C, 20, 105, and a humanities may be too hard. I would say Math 55 is an easy course, 40 and 61B are moderate. I think 61C, 20, and 105 are moderate, so it would be more difficult overall. I definitely think it is doable, though (I took 105, 120, Physics H7C, and Music 26AC in one semester).</p>
<p>Specifically about the workload in 105, it's a problem set a week plus 3-hour labs. EE20 and CS 61C will be the same. None are that hard on their own, but 3 labs is a lot total.</p>
<p>Not so much as "having trouble," but I'd rather not have to spend every waking hour studying if I could help it. It's mentally and physically exhausting.</p>
<p>I suppose I'll look into 20, 61C, and two humanities classes, then. I'm in no hurry to graduate -- and with two EECS classes per semester, I will have taken eight by the time I graduate, which is plenty.</p>
<p>Thanks for the input.</p>
