Chances of getting in to HADES and Groton?

Hi everyone! I am applying to Andover, Deerfield, Exeter, Groton, Hotchkiss, and St. Paul's. My main interests are in math and science and I am in 8th grade (applying to ninth grade). At the high school I am two years advanced (taking 10th grade classes) so I am currently enrolled in AP Biology, Adv. Algebra II/Precalculus, and I am in my second year of Ancient Greek. Then I go over to the middle school and take advanced classes in History, English, and Latin. I got all A's in my classes this year, except for AP Bio where I got a B+ . I think my english recommendation went well-I love my english teacher, and I think she likes me too.

For this SSAT overall 94%

For my EC I have
Volunteering
Arranged local coat drive and donated over 300 coats
Volunteer as a peer tutor in the special ed. department and work to develop communication skills in my autistic peers (4th year in program)
