The 236 is stellar, so no problem there for sure!

The 2240 is a really superb SAT score, and I am guessing that this is 200 points above any cut-off, if such a cut-off exists (but I think that no one outside of National Merit knows for sure).

The only risks you would seem to have would be unexpectedly low GPA or some other issue (like being arrested or expelled), and I assume these are negligable. So you should be in really good shape for NM.

That's my guess.
