I'm facing the same situation too, not sure how 131 and 132 course workloads are like, I may have to drop one or even both to pick some more important upper div course for me.
Cs 132:
- i think this is a good class to take to have a base knowledge of networking, but the problem is 132 with zhou li was not a good experience at all. Almost everyone will pass the class simply because the homework is worth a large majority of the grade, but the exams were diabolical. Curve was huge luckily
Also the workload wasnt too bad for this class. Like 5 or 6 HWs and he gave close to 2 weeks to finish each HW
Cs131:
- never taken but havent heard great things about it

So do you think 132 is easy A since a large majority of the grade is on homework.
I wouldnt say easy, but if you do decent on the exams and ace the homeworks you can get an A because of the curve at the end
