Chances for NCSSM?

Hi everybody, I'm new to this forum but wanted to ask a question on what my chances are of getting into NCSSM. NCSSM, for those of you who don't know, is a prestigious boarding school in Durham, North Carolina, for 11th and 12th graders. Very competitive school. So here's my qualifications, and I was hoping maybe you guys could tell me what my chances would be.
- Mostly A's in freshman year, with 2 B's, but in non-math or science related subjects
- Took Pre-cal in 9th grade, taking AP Calc in 10th grade
- In the IB program, with IB Physics (IB is basically AP)
- Life Scout in Boyscouts and still very active
- Many math competitions in middle school
- Very active in debate and won many metals and went to national tournaments
- Currently all A's, except for a C (working on getting it to a B) in Spanish

That's about all my major qualifications. What else do you think NCSSM would want to know? And any estimates about my chances right now? Thanks to anyone who replies.

what congressional district do you live in? the less competitive your district is, the higher your chance of getting in.
