Canadians at Cornell

If you're Canadian please post your stats and give a little bit of background info.

I'm just curious to see the caliber of Canadian secondary school students that Cornell accepts.

SAT: 2260
SAT II: bio 800 chem 760 math II 800 Korean 800
GPA: well... Canadians don't do GPAs right? Mostly As, 1 or 2 Bs?
IB: predicted 43

But most Canadian people around me seem to get in with lower stats
