Light on GPA and AP classes for rigor. SAT competitive. EC’s are good.

@Gumbymom thanks and do you really think UCB as reach?
i really want to go to berkeley.

GPA is below the average weighted at 4.18. UCB’s admissions are more holisitic than many other UC’s so good EC’s and essays could help boost your application. Take a look at the Decison thread for Class 2019 to get an idea of your chances. Many times UC admissions are a crapshoot, so you need to have some good safeties and solid matches on your list so do not let my chancing discourage you. Apply and hope for the best.
