How high should my GPA be to get accepted into UCLA or Berkeley?

Transfer Students

I just finished my first year of college and i’m currently taking some very easy summer classes for GC’s and if I get all A’s which is highly likely, my GPA would be a 3.72. I’m an Econ major. Is this a good average GPA for those submitted and accepted to UCLA or Berkeley?
