It’s not that simple to help you narrow your list simply based on your credentials. At the end of the day, the research being done at each school and the professors you want to work with is more relevant than the ranking or prestige of each institution. Your list is a bit top heavy, but you also have credentials that seem like a good match for the schools you are applying to.

A couple of questions though:

Why are you applying to those schools?

How many professors are doing research that match your interests in each?

Who is writing your rec letters? Will they come from three PIs?
