(High Schooler) Got an alternate offer w/ no Co-op

So, I applied to Justice & Legal Studies because I found that my ideals aligned with it more than Criminal Justice & Public Policy (although, I'm rethinking that now...) and I applied for co-op. However, I got an alternate offer back with NO co-op which got me confused because I have an 86 average (it says you need an 80 or higher).

Is anyone able to help me figure out if I have a real chance at getting into UofT St George or not?

I applied to uoft stg back in October for the lester b pearson scholarship (which I knew I wouldn't get because my resume isn't like extraordinary). I can't imagine anything other than uoft and maybe up until 2nd sem gr 11, I was confident I'd get in with my grades but then my dad relapsed into his alcohol addiction and he started tormenting me again, and it started reflecting on my grades. I also let myself get talked into doing this program where I did a uni course at york but that genuinely sabotaged me because it had me missing so many classes.

I fortunately did a handful of gr 12 courses in gr 11 and over the summer so I somehow salvaged my top 6 avg. I have an avg of arnd mid 80's. People arnd me kept telling me to focus on extracurriculars (why I did that uni program) so I did (school prez, prom committee prez, head key club ambassador, member of our indigenous truth & reconciliation grp, assistant teacher in the summers, graphic design volunteer, toronto science fair, etc..), and it all ended up being for nothing in terms of uni apps.

I really want to know whether or not I have a shot or give up hope? Does anyone know how I can contact like an admissions officer or just someone to ask? I'm desperate atp. My parents keep asking when I'm getting in and I keep saying soon but I don't even believe that anymore. I only have like 3 more rounds left. I don't know what to do anymore, I feel so awful.
