What to know about double (or triple) majoring at UC Berkeley 

It depends a lot on the particular majors! Neither CS or math requires a huge number of classes, so for me it wasn't too intense (though it helped that I had knocked out a few intro math requirements before starting). I ended up usually taking 3 technical classes and one non-tech per semester

It's hard to give advice on choosing majors, because it depends on what your goals are. Sometimes multiple majors can help for a particular career, but if you're aiming to become a surgeon, neurobiology is probably enough (you won't be specializing much till med school anyway). If you want to choose another major just out of interest, that's not a bad ideal; I would just recommend trying out one or two classes in that field to make sure you really are passionate about it

In some ways it's helpful to be able to switch back and forth between different topics! It makes it more interesting, rather than studying very similar things all at once. But with that said, you definitely don't want to overload yourself, so careful course planning, and spacing out the hard classes from your different majors, is important

Hi! Berkeley doesn't actually have an econ minor. But there's info about the stats minor here statistics.berkeley.edu/academics/undergrad/minor In general, in terms of how doable it is, it depends. Some minors actually require almost as many classes as the corresponding major, in which case it might not be worth it. I'd say to look at the major requirements as well as the minor requirements, and try to plan out a potential schedule

@@nicholasward9383 thank you so much for the insight^^

I would highly recommend spending some time on preparing for CS by pre-studying. The class is fully online and will help you prepare for CS at Berkeley. Look up more videos on youtube and search on the internet for more information. Don't be scared, if you do this and put effort I guarantee you will be fine.

CS + Haas is definitely doable! With that said, if your main goal is to do business and you need the other major just for OPT, it's probably a little less work to do either Data Science or Applied Math

@shreya what did you end up doing? How did it go?

Sorry for the super late reply - no you don't, it's the same tuition!
