should I take calc 3 and differential equations or EE 254 and EGR 265 (electrical engineering major)

I'm surprised they're optional for you. Both were required for me in CE but I was under the impression that all EE majors needed to take DiffEQ.

When I was in school Calc 3 and Diff Eq were required of all engineering majors. However, some schools have different levels of math classes. When I went to school there was a Calc sequence for math/engineering students and a different, less rigorous sequence for life sciences and business majors.

For the first two years I took one calculus or advanced math every quarter along with a physics and a chemistry class for my engineering degree. Figure out what you need to be qualified for your winter and spring classes.

The classes are pretty much spelled out for you, as an EE in your second year you may take something EE oriented vs chemistry (im a ChemE).

The vast majority of engineers and engineering curriculum require calc 3 and diffy q. You should take those, adding the others if so desired.

This is what we have to look forward to from today's youth.

Don't sound like a curmudgeon. A healthy subset ^^ of students existed when you were young as well. There is yet another group of students today that would kick our generations most motivated students butts.
