<p>First off, I'm a dual citizen (US & CA) born, raised, and living in US. Should I apply as American or Canadian or do I not have a choice?</p>
<p>Chance me at McGill?</p>
<p>33 ACT
3.9 Weighted GPA
On AP tests, three 5's and a 4.
Elected Officer of top 25 in the nation speech and debate team, made it to top 32 and top 8 of the nation at major national debate tournaments.

<p>Your chances are pretty great. Getting into the top Canadian schools is not so difficult even for internationals… which is what you may be considered admissions wise since you went to an American school. But your tuition should be the Canadian rate.</p>
<p>What’s your unweighted GPA?</p>
<p>Basically, when talking about Canada, there’s no such thing as “chances” .
If you have the grades, you get in. If you dont…oh well…</p>
<p>^ lol so true. Just have good grades and prove that you are not a human wall paper then it’s pretty easy to get in. Make sure you get along with at least 2 teachers though, because even though we are talking about Canadian universities, reference matters…</p>
<p>Thanks guys! My unweighted is probably pretty bad since I took almost exclusively honors and AP classes, so like 3.3-3.4 I would imagine.</p>
<p>Paying Canadian rate + room and board only a few thousand more than my state’s very expensive instate tuition. And I’m pretty sure McGill beats Pitt.</p>
<p>I do have good reference letters, luckily.</p>
<p>what is ur unweighted gpa? a 3.9 weighted is low for McGill.<br>
McGill in general requires a 90%+ average and they are highly academic based, they barely even consider your Ecs at all. In fact, for canadian applicants to Mcgill, they dont.</p>
<p>Note that an A in Canada is 86% and McGill requires a 90%+</p>
<p>However, your ACT scores look good.</p>
