Questions about my schedule

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of California - Berkeley
1

I’m undeclared in L&S, although my intended major is CS. I’m also interested in MCB/Public Health/Integrative Biology, so I may do one of those if I decide I don’t find CS10 interesting.

Math 1A
2 Breadths courses
CS10
Chem P

No R&C because all of the good ones are are taken :frowning:

Questions:

  1. It says Chem P doesn't show up on your transcript. Does this mean that your grade point average won't be affected no matter how poorly/well you do in the class?
  2. If CS doesn't quite work out and I decide to P/NP CS10, could it be used to fulfill the Physical Sciences breadth requirement for the MCB/Public Health/Integrative Biology majors?
  3. Would it be possible to drop CS10 and switch to 61A early on if I don't find that the class is helpful?
  4. What are your favorite breadths courses? I've been looking at Japan 181 and Philosophy 3, but the latter seems to have harsh grading.

On question 2, the MCB and IB majors require Physics 8A-8B or 7A-7B, which automatically fulfill the L&S physical science breadth requirement. CS 10 does not fulfill that requirement. See https://ls.berkeley.edu/physical-science-breadth-requirement .
