My D. had very similar stats (her ACT=33, GPA = 4.0uw, top of her class). She applied to few bc/md, the most competitive was Case’s PPSP. She applied to PPSP because of huge merit scholarships that Case is known to award. She was rejected from PPSP before interview despite of getting huge merit scholarship and great interest from Case’s Varsity swim coach. She got couple other rejections. She made it to 3 programs at state schools. She is a sophmore at one of them. This was 2 years ago, she did not apply to any that you mentioned because they are way too competitive. This is just FYI for comparison. You should just apply and see what happen. However, I also strongly advise to apply to other less competitive bs/md programs.
