<p>Currently im in grade 10. I go to a top private school in Canada, I'm from Vietnam. This is my first year here so my report is not that great, I currently have like a 86% average, which is an A. We dont calculate GPA or class rank in BC, Canada but I'm pretty sure I'm in top 10% of my class. I'm currently in Honors for Math, Science and English. I also do grade 11 Marketing course and grade 12 Mandarin. I didn't know about APs till I got here so I didn't have any APs right now, but I'm planning on taking a few next year.</p>

<p>Courses for grade 11 - junior year
English AP
Bio AP
Mandarin AP
Probably Macroeconomics AP
Grade 12 Financial Accounting
Math 11 precal
Social Studies 11</p>

<p>Try to increase your average a little more…otherwise, I think you have a great chance of getting into all of this school. Make sure you do well in the ACT and think of good essay topics that make your personality shine. Otherwise, you have plenty of time. Just use it wisely</p>

<p>Stanford may be a tougher one for you (they’re known for outright rejecting students HPY immediately accept). You’re on the right track-- take some fine art classes to add to your ECs and well-roundedness, and maybe look toward some small but prestigious private LACs like Vassar or Wesleyan-- they have tons of funding and wonderful reputations. Good luck!</p>

<p>Very slim, considering how you’ll competing with other insane Asian internationals.</p>

<p>Thanks for the info but i think i have a strong international diversity, i lived in different countries and i have a unique background. But what i think about other Asians is they focus too much on academics and their stats on their application, im just living my enjoy my life :)… gotta prepare hard for SAT</p>
