<p>Hello all!</p>

<p>Academics:</p>
<p>I'm in the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program which is the most rigorous curriculum offered in my area. I am also attending the top ranked school in my region.</p>
<ul>
<li>standard level biology - level 7</li>
<li>standard level economics - level 7</li>
<li>standard level french - level 4 (killing me)</li>
<li>higher level english - predicted level 6</li>

</ul>
<p>overall, my average last year was around a 93-94%</p>
<p>GPA: We in Canada don't actually do GPA's, but from what I gleaned from other people mines is comparable to a high 3 or 4? correct me if I'm wrong</p>
