A gentle reminder that the OP asked about Bravo, not Charlie space.

You certainly can bust Bravo with a flight following. Some controllers
are very good and professional about helping you not bust it. Others
might be too busy, not care, or on that rare occasion, devious, but it's
up to the pilot to make sure clearance is granted.

A student pilot on flight following clipping the edge of Bravo is possible.
