Hi
my first choice school is UC Berkeley

volunteer hours of 40h(cancer society program and senior center)

took apchem last year and (got A)
taking ap bio this year
canadian schools didn't have any honors program but i was on the honors roll all year of my high school

my canadian school wasn't really offering AP's and i was planning to take all three sciences same year but american school only allow me to take one science at a time. So i couldn't take ap physics
I was in advanced function in canada but when i moved here, they placed me into algebra 2 and now i'm taking pre-calc.

I just moved from canada to US last december
and i think i have lower chance to get in because i'm considered as international

I live near berkeley and i really want to go to that school!!

Do i have any chance of getting in?

I was thinking of applying to cornell,upenn,darthmouth but i saw people with amazing test scores and ECs and now, i don't know if i will try those schools

Help me by giving me decent advices

thank you so much
