I submitted an application for this ages ago, but do you think they check your records for volunteer hours? It doesn't ask for the exact number of hours on the application, but maybe they check with your school. I'm just wondering if they check up on this. Also, my grade 12 average is much higher than my grade 11 average, however only grade 11 marks were submitted in the application. It would blow if they determine the recipients through grade 11 marks only. =/

As for your volunteer hours, they probably check with your endorser about your volunteer activities. Don't fret too much about your marks, Millenium is more about your community service and leadership. Look at it this way, you'll receive a big entrance scholarship from University with your high average. However, if your average is now up to like 97%+, I guess you could mention that in telephone interview.

Yeah, definitely. I had an 87% average in Grade 11 and have a 93% right now. Makes a world of difference.
