<p>Im filling out my UC app, and came across a problem. Im a poli sci major, and ive been interning at a law office for the past year and 4 ( ever since i started CCC). I interned for like 5 hours a day 6 days a week. But i did nothing else! Is it gona look bad that i only did 1 EZ, might i add my gpa is only a 3.5.</p>
<p>First off, 3.5 is the average GPA of those accepted for poli sci at UCLA. Secondly, just put the truth! You could make it advantageous to you by mentioning it in the personal statement and focusing on your devotion/dedication.</p>
<p>gabew42, Thanks alot for the advice. I actually already had made that the "source of experience" for my question #1, and talked about my passion. When I showed it to one of my friends who's applying to berkeley, He said it sounded too dramatic becasue I was talking too much about " how passionate" i was about the topic. Do you think its wrong to be super passionate while writing the personal statement? Also it sort of seems kind of rough to just put one thing in the whole activites page. Don't you think it's a risk?</p>
<p>If you don't have anything else to list then you really don't have another choice...maybe you could brainstorm and find other things to put down. As for being passionate, I don't think it's wrong. I think it's good to show you are passionate about your major.</p>
