Hi everybody, I’m fron Illinois and I’ve already applied to McGill and I was wondering if anyone could tell me my chances of getting in?

Here’s my info:
I’m a National Merit Semifinalist, although I’m pretty sure McGill doesn’t give money for that, but could it help my chances?
I’ve been in all honors/AP all through high school. Right now, I’m in AP Lit, AP Calc AB, AP French, AP Bio, and AP Psych and I have A’s in 3 of them (5.6 GPA now, but I don’t know if that matters).
My GPA is a 5.13/6.00 (which is a B average for honors classes, but an A average for regular classes). It’s kind of low, although 2nd semester of junior year, I got a 5.34. Sorry, I really don’t know how to convert it to a 4 point scale.
2260 on the SAT–780 on writing and critical reading, 700 on math.
SAT IIs-- 690 on math II and French, 750 on literature
5’s on my AP Language and Composition and AP U.S. tests, 4 on AP Euro
33 on the ACT
Member of NHS
President and founder of a pre-medical club at my school
Member of the track team for all 4 years of hs

I’d really like to get into the Arts/Science degree, so if anybody knows about that, could they tell me how my chances are for that, too? Also, is financial aid possible for international students?

Thank you!
