I would say that you have a very strong application with a large and noticeable spike. Your ECs and Awards look great. At this point the only thing to do is retake the SAT and focus on the human part of your application(essays, recs, etc)

@MG I think you have a good chance due to your hook (i.e. awards). Your SAT however is pretty average for HYPSM and also other top schools, specially as an Asian applicant. I think it might be worth raising it a bit if you can, but probably your major awards and GPA/rank will make up for it.
