Hey guys, I was hoping I could get some insight. I have some anxiety for my application. I am a UC Riverside student, political science major, and am applying to transfer to UC Berkeley. Here are some stats, maybe you could tell me if I have a chance:

3.6 GPA

Part time job that takes most of my day, so no EC

Online writing and tutoring job on the side

Took 3 UCB summer sessions

No failed classes, no C’s.

Excellent essays/personal statements, I worked with my lawyer/writing buddy on them that goes to UCB’s law school.

Financial difficulty. I mentioned Berkeley, and how living there could alleviate my problems bc I could live with my parents

Do I have a shot?
