Great credentials but I’ve found so many other kids on CC with similar or better stats. I think these schools are inundated with so many great applicants that they begin to look for other exceptional qualities. Thus, what makes you so special when there are 9000 others like you?

You never know what that hook will be and thus you can’t count on your stats alone to guarantee admission. Just apply and cross your fingers.
