EB-3 -> EB-2 Is it really useful and how it affects LC

Hello,
I am currently filing LC and I have following questions about the filing category in I-140.

My employer's job ad for my case mentions that they require BS degree with 3 year exp or MS degree with 1 year exp. I hold an advanced degree (MS) and have meet other criteria for EB-2. But, my attorneys are saying that my case would be EB-3 because of the BS degree alternative specified in the job ad.

Now, I'd appreciate if you could provide me answers for the following:

1. Can I still request my attorneys consider EB-2 for me?
2. Is the processing time for EB-2 applications faster than EB-3 applications? If so, typically how fast?
3. Will the filing category for I-140 affect the LC in anyway?


Thank you.
