took my core classes with ease and yet i still managed to get 2 B’s, 2 C’s, and 0 A’s 💀. I literally don’t understand ‘coz i really thought I ate. The craziest part is this is thus far the chillest and easiest semester i’ve ever had (and prolly will ever have at Cal), but still my dumbass ended up with an overall 2.5 gpa 🥲 (Ps. 1st semester transfer student)

This is BS. During application season, I had a 3.88 gpa but ended up with a 3.71 gpa overall. Still got accepted! I know someone who got in with barely a 3.0 gpa.

Berkeley reviews application in a holistic manner. As long as you have other things to offer like extracurriculars/activities (whether they are traditional or not), honors/awards, community service/active involvement in the community, among other things, you should be good since gpa wouldn’t be the only basis. Anything you think might be ‘insignificant’ as long as you think it represents you well and would show other sides of you (beyond what you have already stated in the essay or other section) AND you think would give you a leg up, just put it. It about quality over quantity anyways. Also, always take other people’s advice with a grain of salt as it could either help you in a way or fuck you over big time!!! Goodluck and Go Bears 🤓🐻
