My main worries are course rigor (it is the most rigorous available at my school),class size, and my 3 on AP Euro.
Your bio checks a number of important boxes for diversity: ethnic, geographical (especially for Harvard and Stanford), and sociological / school type. In addition, your test scores and GPA put you in the frame for admission, quite apart from any diversity considerations.
Therefore, I think the crucial factor in your application will be your essays.
How will you present yourself? How will you make clear that you have made the most of the academic and social resources that have been available to you at your school? More importantly, how will you explain the ways in which the academic and social resources available at each university will be uniquely suited to help you fulfill your potential and pursue your intellectual and vocational dreams?
If your essays succeed in presenting compelling answers to these questions, then I could imagine you being accepted at any one of these four schools. At the same time, you need to remember that reaches are reaches for everyone. Good luck!
