SMS can be sent either in CS or PS path.
- How is this adjusted on the BSCs ? - Are there broadcast messages guiding the MS whether to use CS or PS path to send the SMSc?
- or the MS just chooses what it wants ?

That will depend on the operators implementation. If Gs interface is implemented you can have SMS sent on GPRS PDCH via the SGSN and the MSC/VLR route.
