Canada Undergrad Chances

Currently grade 11 but I'll share what I'm looking like now. I’m hoping for Ivey, queens or McGill (in that order but happy with any)

Average 93, I think I can get it to a 95-96 grade 12.

ECs: Have worked with special needs children part time during school and full time during the summers for 2 years.

Founder of investment society at high school.

Made to DECA provincials.

Head of sales at web development startup, brought thousands of dollars of revenue to company and restructured pricing and fees to maximize sales.

Volunteer at baseball program for children with special needs and disabilities.

Ivey AEO all about essays. Everyone has mid 90s and great EC's.

Ivey is also you're best bet if you want to have a chance at going states side. If looking to stay in Canada, queens and mcgill are good too - just keep the grades up.
