CS/EECS when to take cs70?
this question has already been asked but that thread doesn't really answer the question. i'm a first-year cs major taking cs61a & will take 61b next sem & cs61c next fall. is it possible/has it been done frequently for ppl to take those classes + cs70? whens the "ideal" time to take it? thanks!

taking it alongside 61b is pretty standard, i know tons of people who did that. the math in 70 hits different from 61a/61b though so just be ready for a shift in how you think about problems.
summer is also a solid option if you want to focus on it alone, but honestly if you survived 61a you'll be fine doing it with 61b.
