Hello, I’m a computer science major who’s also very interested in mathematics. I’m applying to most UCs as a CS major w/ Mathematics as my alternative major. For Berkeley, I’m missing the Data Structures class so I think my admission chance would be very low if I apply w/ that class missing. I see that I fulfill all the requirements for Math so I’m thinking of applying as a Math major.
I have a question regarding the required question for UC essay, if I’m applying to different majors for different schools and I only get one essay sent to all the schools, should I specify that I’m a CS or Math major or should I just write my major vaguely or incorporate both? Thanks!
