ACT- i should get over 32 and sat subject test both close to 800 (but it is lower because english is not my first languege- do they consider that right?)
we do not have any AP classes. so I couldnt take any

What do you think? If I apply to all of these schools, do I have a chance that I will be accepted at least at one of them?

No one knows what your chances are, partially because you have no test scores. However, a bit of advice. You should not be pinning your hopes on an upper tier school, as students with perfect grades and test scores are routinely rejected. The difficulty is only increased for international students, as international students accepted to America's best schools are often among the top students in their respective countries. Your list of schools needs to be adjusted to include match schools and safety schools. You need to adjust your college application strategy to one that includes a range of schools and not just the most admissions difficult schools in the United States. That single-minded, one-dimensional strategy could lead to serious disappointment. In short, as an international student you will have a harder time with admissions to top American schools, made less difficult if you are an absolutely top student relative to other international applicants. Plan on applying to a much BROADER range of schools.
