Chances at UNC Chapel Hill and Wake Forest?

I know this isn't the right format but I'm too lazy to change it. Anyways, im going to be as concise and succinct as possible.

I am an in-state student (NC) with a 4.0 gpa. I am a rising senior who will have taken 6 ap classes. I have a myriad of extra-curricular activities including Eagle Scout (Boy Scouts), Order of the Arrow (Scouting's National Honor Society), Beta Club (community service club), and I'm a lifeguard employed at the ymca. I am also athletic: I am a varsity lettermen on the swim team. I also played travel AA ice hockey during most of high school. The only major hindrances i have is that i already have 3 c's on my high school transcript ( I've gotten one c every year of high school so far), and my sat score is a 1520. That being said, what are my chances at the prelisted schools?

...I know that compared to the rest of the high schoolers on here i look like ****. But everyone is unique in their own way and not all of us are all brains. Besides, the standards are lower down here in the south.

Whats your 4.0 GPA out of? IT must be weighted since you got 3 c's. And is your SAT our of 2400?

If it is you prolly have a lot better shot at wake since they don't require that u send an sat score.
