So you have really good ECs i would say. I think that you lack in the leadership positions area as well but hopefully that won't be too much of a big deal. The big thing with this resume is the fact that your GPA is low for berkley and stanford. you really should have a 3.8 or better uw for schools like this. However, you seem to show a focus towards your ECs and you seem to taking rigorous courses, so hopefully that is overlooked.
please chance me at "chance me guys!" by me, raca1111
