You are a competitive applicant. Your stats and ECs are great. Write good essays, get amazing letters of recommendations, and you could get accepted

I agree with that. However, make sure your essay is about what you are passionate about. Colleges like those look at you on a scope of many other applicants with the same credentials so explain what makes you stand out and how you passions will help each of those college. They like to know you are interested and not just submitting an application just to try and get in and base the essay for all your colleges. Make each one unique and explain what is so important for them and relate it to you and your passions. Hope this helps!
