<p>What are some things that can give you the biggest advantage at getting into Berkeley other than test scores and GPA?</p>
<p>Being an interesting person.</p>
<p>^But there are so many interesting people here that it’s so boring. Maybe having a boring person might lighten things up a bit since it’ll be someone different.</p>
<p>Btw OP I’m joking, just be yourself because we’re all interesting in some way and let that show in your essay?</p>
<p>don’t study all day and have no life. if you do, don’t talk about it</p>
<p>if you didn’t have overqualified stats and extracurrics as a ca resident, having a really, really, really, good personal statement WILL help.</p>
<p>berkeley loves their stories, i’m convinced.</p>
