Hey there, I'm a grade 11 student who really wants to get into University of Waterloo Computer Science. My average last semester was 87. Assuming I dont do any better or worse, is it possible for me to make it into University of Waterloo Computer Science.

Computer Science - 87%
Physics - 85%
Accounting - 85%
Anthropology - 88%

I'm taking Functions, English and Chen this semester right now so that could change the marks. But assuming I get an 86 in this too, are the chances looking good.

I have also done a lot of graphics in Unreal Engine 4 and some programming outside of high school, I don't know if that would help.

Any help is appreciated, Thanks

(Sorry if this question has been asked a lot, I just couldn't find one from at least 2-3 years ago)

Yes, but it's competitive. The typical advice is to do your best, and round out your marks. English is typically neglected, but you get a lot more value to push that 70% -> 80% (example, if you have a weak subject) then doing the same amount of work to push 95% -> 97% (in a strong subject).
