To be honest, your credentials look fine, but when you’re trying to get into Stanford the credentials are just a benchmark to see if they should consider your application. Afterwards, what you write on your essays is–in my opinion–one of the most important aspects of getting admitted. I’m currently a Stanford freshman and I definitely didn’t have as many things glittering my resume, but I sold myself hard on my essays and I tried to create a story of what made me different and why Stanford needed me in their story. If you have more questions feel free to ask. I also do college admissions consulting and SAT tutoring (which it doesn’t look like you particularly need) but if you’re interested in my services feel free to email jespero@stanford.edu

Best of luck!
