<p>I'm thinking of skipping Math 53, Physics 7A, and 7B because I've already completed them at a community college, but I'm not sure if it's a wise decision as the community college education I got in these subjects is presumably subpar to that of Berkeley's. That said, I don't feel as confident in these subjects as I would with subjects that I'd take at Berkeley, so I was wondering if these classes really played an important role in the EECS degree (I'm leaning heavily towards CS and am taking option IV so EE exposure will be limited). I know enough of Math 53 and Physics 7A to quickly just refresh my knowledge if any of its concepts ever come up. The only thing with these two classes would be the lack of exposure to challenging problem sets -- the problem sets I've been exposed to in the community college classes most probably didn't exploit my creative thinking ability as much as problem sets in Berkeley would. I'm definitely shaky on many of Physics 7B's concepts, so it might be worth retaking if it has any important role in EECS.</p>
<p>So my question is, is it worth opting out of these classes, or are they (or any specific ones) so important that it will it come as a detriment to my EECS education if I choose to skip them?</p>
