biology815, definitely, definitely go for it!
one tip i have for you though is that SAT scores really don’t matter all that much (if at all) when applying to canadian schools- but regardless, you have great scores AND an awesome GPA to boot so i think you certainly have great chances.

one thing to acknowledge though is that canada has so few universities that it really gives priority to its canadian students first. so the chances of getting in are harder for american students, just like our canadian chances are harder when applying to your american schools (only makes sense, right?).

on the bright side though, mcgill is probably the most international of all the canadian universities so your chances of getting in as an american there are definitely better than eslewhere in canada as long as you ahve competitive grades, which you certainly do!

hope that helped?
