Assuming you can explain your dip in grades, this is what I think (Since you have amazing SAT scores and everything else looks fine as well). If you can’t explain it then it might be an issue because your senior year grades would represent what you are most likely to do in college.

Pittsburgh (already in)
Columbia (#1)- Low Reach
U Chicago- Reach
Cornell- Match/Low Reach
Yale- Reach (same as Harvard)
Harvard- Reach (for everyone, usually a good hook is needed)
Johns Hopkins- Match/Low-reach
Ursinus- Not sure
Macalester- Not sure
