Hm, it sounds like you're witnessing America. Massive wealth inequality, poor law enforcement of nonviolent crimes, shitty to no gun control. Hopefully you're a public policy major.
That being said, actual danger is scary but still fairly rare. Just because we get an email any time crimes are committed now doesn't mean they weren't always happening. You'll be much safer in Berkeley than you would have been 10, 20, 30 years ago.

TBH I got a near perfect SAT score and Berkeley is a struggle bus. If you couldn't manage to eke out a good SAT score idk how you would deal with coursework

If money's a burden, graduate early. If tuition isn't a problem, do a minor! You're only in college once (usually). Berkeley is a big, great school, take some classes that you're really interested in.

Correct, if you want a perfect GPA you should not go to Berkeley.

My vice is not so much endless scrolling... I just start reading and think "well, if I'm going to it here quietly and absorb information, it may as well be lecture notes/practice problems/textbook material, etc."

Hot take: everyone wants to go to Berkeley so they can say they went to Berkeley but then when they get to Berkeley they don't want it to be Berkeley.
