Potential columbia Applicant

Hello, I'm a 12 th grade student from hong kong and I want to apply to potential elite schools. Currently, my choices are Wharton, columbia and Harvard.
Cv:
Grades:
Current gpa of 4
No sat yet
Starting ib diploma program
Probably top in my class

Extra curricular and others:
Website designer for service team
Events coordinator for service team
50 hours of service and received a government certifcate
3 subject awards, best in the year
15 commendations for top in class for most subjects
Work experience for a week as kennel keeper in SPCA
Numerous volunteering trips such as visits to community centers to visit the elderly
Player of a Chinese game called go, widely played in china and most parts of the world. Joined the hk competition and came second place
Head of the schools investment club
Service chairman of year group so I coordinate all service activities

Overall, I have good academics so all I need is a high sar score. Is there a chance of me getting in? My identity as a person relates to strategic thinking as I always like using this type of thinking which leads to my interest in Chinese chess.
