I want to get into a need-blind college like Northwestern. Do I have chances for getting in (math major)?

SAT score- 2250 (math800, reading 760, writing690)
11th grade scores- Mostly A’s
10th grade scores- quite low (my 10th grade school system had neither grades nor GPAs)
Ethnicity- Asian and residence- India (although I am not an international applicant)
The recommendations will be very good.

Extra-curriculars-
Selection for a couple of national seminars on graduate mathematics
(Representation Theory, Commutative Algebra, Topology)
The indian equivalent of the USAMO in grades 10th and 11th (but not selected for the IMO team)
the RMO in grades 9th and 10th (which is more or less similar to the AIME)
