Berkeley Q&A! | Grade Deflation, Freshman Year, Getting Into Classes, Roommates, Safety

Today we're doing a Berkeley Q&A, from grade deflation, roommates, safety, and getting into classes freshman year! You all sent me a ton of questions via Instagram (@senecabrynn) and I address the most commonly asked ones here. Keep in mind that of course all of these answers are from my own personal experience and my opinion, but I think many people at Cal would agree with these answers. Comment down below if there’s anything I missed or that you want to know!
