MIT and Stanford are met by fierce competition amongst other applicants. Since you haven given the SAT, you won't get the admission in American unis, but you can still get the admission in UK unis. Here is what you will require if you apply to MIT:
http://mitadmissions.org/apply/transfer/documents

You can try in Cambridge University as well. Their requirements are atleast one A* and 2As, which you already satisfy. But to appease their insatiable desire to select the best students from across the world, you will need extra circulars, community service .etc. There are many other unis in UK. Do mention some and I might as well guide you on each one separately
What you need to worry about is the admission. Don't worry about the fees, there are always loans, grants and scholarships to avail from. And they are not the same from everyone; it is primarily dependant on the annual revenue of your parents/guardians, your property amount... (ie. your financial status). However, what I must add is that the cost of living in UK is great. Comparatively America is a a cheaper place to live.

What I would also recommend to you is that do look out for Australian and Canadian unis. To divert your attention from your local unis to the best unis in the world is a great start, and I would advise you to broaden your perspective. If however, you are averse in doing so, or have relatives that live in UK, then do what makes you happy
Which uni you spotted for yourself?

a year before bull shit thts not fair so i cant apply in any USA universities????
You have to give your SATs in the senior fall year. Like, you have to give it a few months before your Class XII exams or A-levels.
Like, I will be giving my A levels in March 2016, so I will be giving my SATs in 2015, in the month range of September-November. You have to submit the SAT scores and your predicted/actual grades. I encourage you to research about these things instead of waiting for others to inform you. You will be saved from deadlines.

Why can't you google the universities you have an interest in? There were plenty of universities that were suggested in the first page of this thread. Check there.

Uh..Chemical & Biomolecular/Biological Engineering, with undergraduate research. I'm also applying for medicine as a back-up. I hope to research into Nanotechnology and its sub-fields.

I will give my A level in 2015 and then a year gap for work experience plus SAT examinations directly after coming dates in 2015. This is my plan.
I'm doing all of them in a single year :p
