<p>Cal is on par with every Ivy as far as difficulty in being admitted. So ‘easy’ is a relevant term. That being said, if you have special circumstances and/or provide some unique ability and/or can add to the ‘diversity’ that Berkeley likes so much. Cal has tons of students with a 4.0+ GPA and perfect SAT’s…you will have a better shot if you stand out with community service or talent.</p>
