Will my gpa kill my chance?

I’m going to be a junior next year and if I get straight As next year, I’ll only have a 3.85 (possibly 3.88 if I take summer school, but that’s pretty unlikely because I will probably be volunteering somewhere). I have good enough ecs and my SAT is a 2230. Looking at the average gpa at Berkeley, my chances look pretty slim as I am 0.04 below it, and as the average gpa has been rising steadily, have I lost all chances of getting into Berkeley? If I’m not completely hopeless, are the chances slim?
