<p>There is a gigantic thread about this already:
<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1535416-holistic-admissions-berkeley.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/parents-forum/1535416-holistic-admissions-berkeley.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>However, if you want to know more about the process, read the Hout report:

And other documents about the process:

<p>Thanks for the link. I should have checked the Parents Forum more often.</p>
