You’re entirely competitive for all three EXCELLENT universities. I agree that outstanding essays will probably move you ahead of MANY other applicants, with essentially similar records. If you have a single target school that you clearly prefer and if the financial arrangements are both solid and satisfactory, ED/EA would make your acceptance somewhat more certain.
