<p>Hey! </p>
<p>I’m a fellow HAAS student, and just transferred in beginning this Fall semester. From my personal talks with other fellow transfers, most of us did have GPA’s above 3.9+ and as with this calculation, many of us did achieve a B, or two in our classes. With that being said, I think the holistic approach is the bigger factor in terms of the admissions team differentiating you from other applicants. </p>
<p>I personally had a 4.0 UC GPA, but a 3.93 Overall GPA from getting a B in a pre-calculus class in my first semester of college. With that being said, I held a position as a junior finance controller at a local firm (mentioned to them how I worked full-time while taking on a full load) and also held an investment portfolio that was beating the S&P 500 by 3 times the return in a 3 year valuation period with a large holding in volume size. Again, the important factor for me was combining these achievements and depicting the bigger picture of me and for what it will allow me to become by using the HAAS brand. </p>
<p>Good luck! </p>
<p>Also, getting a 4.0 is by no means a valid statement, here is the link to the previous class profile. <a href=“Class Profile - Undergraduate Program - Berkeley Haas”>Class Profile - Undergraduate Program - Berkeley Haas;
