Chances for getting internship at NIH

Im currently a junior in high school and am applying to the NIH Summer Internship Program in Biomedical Research.

White, Male, 16 years old (if it matters)
GPA (UW) : 3.62 (135/416)
GPA (W) : 4.2 (114/428)

Have completed AP Chemistry in my sophomore year, I got an A

AP Chem test : 5
SAT II Subject test in chemistry : 800

I have a 4.0 in all science courses and have completed bio, chem, and AP Chem.

AP Classes this year:
-AP Calculus AB/BC
-AP Economics
-AP Physics B1 and B2


ECs:
- Member of national math honor society
- Starter on varsity football team
- Volunteered at soup kitchen in baltimore
- Soon to be member of NHS and nation science honor society

Should get a very good recommendation from my AP Chem teacher.


Dont have much to list since im only a junior, and the internship is this coming summer.

Mainly what im worried about is i have yet to complete many AP Classes, although the one that i did complete (AP Chem) i did very well in. Because of this i feel like im pretty limited on my application.

Im also a little worried about competing with college students.


Thanks for your time
