<p>I know you already sent in your appeal but just little tips for people:even if you’ve done a million community service stuff and even if you get good grades sometimes they are interested in how certain students can contribute to the campus and how they have overcome stuff like maybe a learning disability. Granted that grades and stuff are super important I think peopple focus too much about that and then they are shoccked they didn’t get in. I know someone who got in ucb with a 3.31 but their story was convincing also if you live in berkeley you should really get to know faculty before u apply. Set up a meeting with a dean of the school ur interested in or find out respected recruiters (like bridges) or join people that will take an interest toward you so that ucb wants u. Joint starting point mentorship program! Or go to multienthnic transfer day. These things are important!! </p>
<p>Also the reason so many people get rejehcted from appeals is because the info isn’t really new or compelling. New and compelling stuff is like your parents lost their job and you need to stay home or the california forrest fires prevented you going something. Usually it’s pretty drastic</p>
<p>Ps sorry for typos I’m on my iphone LOL</p>
