If you are hit by lightning what are the chances of being completely unaffected by it?

That depends on what you mean by completely unaffected. I was hit by lightning when I was 11. I walked away from it. There was no obvious damage. Was I unaffected? Maybe. In truth, however, I was temporarily knocked out, and when I got up, I developed a migraine. Since lightning is a very large amount of energy, my position is that the probability of being completely unaffected by a strike to one's self is zero.
I was the first one on my feet. I did not even know it was lightning, as I did not feel it, see it, or hear it. I had to be told it was a lightning strike. Every one else was "flattened" by the boom. The migraine developed about 5 minutes later, and they took me to the hospital, to be declared "unaffected". I disagree.
