Applicant's Advice
"If in a similar situation with weak stats and difficult circumstances, holistically minded schools like Berkeley might not be as out of reach as you think. Strong essays and additional statements explaining circumstances can be crucial. Berkeley acceptance is an exception, not the rule, but exceptions do exist."
