<p>You will find out in September. But every year there is a thread: 'National Merit Semifinalist Qualifying Score Thread for 20XX" and about page 40-50 results start coming in in late August when some people get notified early by their schools. So you can find out a bit earlier. Looks like you have a very good chance. Idaho was 207 last year and 211 the year before. Check back more years on the threads to see if it’s ever been higher. U of Idaho, Moscow offers free ride to NMFs. You will need to make finalist to be eligible for the best scholarships. Don’t get more than 1 C, or 2 at most. No Cs is better. And take the SAT, get score about 2000. There are lots of informative threads in National Merit forum.</p>
