<p>So well said shiboing. Could not agree with you more. </p>
<p>Getting back the point of this thread, you have gauranteed admission. I can't possibly see you getting rejected. While it is harder for out of staters to get in, seeing as he uC system is intended to be an outlet mostly for Cali kids, you will get in with those stats.</p>
<p>They realy do make it easier on us Cali kids though. For example, theres a program in state called ELC which gives you some special app to fill out (pre-created or something) if you are in the top 4% of your school. While the app just says you are ELC evaluated and is not special in any sense, its basically giving you extra "points" for having a high GPA from an instate school.</p>
<p>But getting back to the point, unless you are applying to other UC's, dont waste your time on Berkley. If it werent for UCLA and the fact that I'm from in state, there would be no reason for me to apply.</p>
