<p>I'm a Canadian, at a private boarding school in Grade 12.</p>
<p>Academics:
96% average
Ranked 1st in my grade
800 math
800 reading
730 writing (only 7 on essay, I don't know how)
790 Math I
800 Math II
Taking fairly rigorous courseload, but my school doesn't allow more than 2 APs at a time.</p>
<p>ECs:
Went on exchange to South Africa for 3 months, taught kids English once a week while I was there
Volunteered at Sick Kids Hospital in Toronto doing research work for 3 weeks last summer
Captain of Varsity Rowing, stroke seat of the Sr. Men's 4 (decent boat, but not medal-contention level or anything)
Member of the Varsity Squash team
Voted Peer Counselor by fellow students
Co-Head of the admissions program at my school
Tutor for elementary-school kids since grade 9</p>
<p>Essays:
Common app - on leaps of faith, integrated skydiving and getting through my mother's death (she passed away when I was 7)
Supplement - on teaching kids in South Africa and what it taught me</p>
<p>References are really good I think, I'd like to have 3 though (two from teachers, one from my academic advisor/rowing coach), do you think that will hurt if I have an extra one?</p>
<p>Whaddaya think, do I have a shot? Btw, if you got this far, thanks for reading :)</p>
