<p>Your gpa seems on the low side although if your high school tends to have lower gpas in general as you say make sure you get your counsellor to make a note of it in their recommendation letter. </p>

<p>Don’t see any apparent weaknesses but nothing particularly strong either (unless a coach is planning on making you an athletic recruit). Would help if you post what school you’re trying to get into as well.</p>
