Just on what Canadian_EE said, McGill’s music and linguistics programs are definitely among the best in the world, probably better than law and medicine. The one faculty at McGill that is outstandingly weak is management - the business school is often claimed to be not at the same level as McGill’s other faculties.

Looking at your grades, easyabc, I’m not entirely sure if you’ll get in, but I think you have a good shot. You’re SAT IIs are acceptable, while on your SAT I, only your reading score is a problem - hopefully it’ll be better when you retake in October. Your GPA is a bit low for McGill (people with about that GPA from my school were watilisted), but I’m unsure to what extent taking 7 AP courses will negate that.
