Student from Mexico - Getting into McGill

<p>I'm a high school student in 10th grade from Mexico. My dream is to study a major in architecture in McGill University in Canada in 2015. I attend a private school in Aguascalientes, Mexico and have an average of 92% so far. I get good grades in all my classes keeping an average always above 90 percent. I'm fully fluent in English and have TOEFL certification. I take private violin lessons, I am really good at drawing and painting; I am passionate over different architecture styles and landscape architecture and I do school required community service hours. I want to know what my chances for admission would be in 2015 if I were to have the same average, however I would like to know what are some things and activities I could do in the meantime to help myself and improve my chances of being admitted. My school doesn't really have groups or clubs to join so I need to look elsewhere for opportunities.</p>

<p>McGill doesn’t really look at extracurriculars. Your results must place you in the top 10% of your country’s students as defined by your country’s standards (ie, if only 10% get 88% and more you’re fine.) Getting the highest possible score in your classes and exams is the most important. If you want you can take the SAT but it’s only required from American applicants and you should score above 700 in math.</p>
