Going off the limited information in your post I would say you have a decent shot at all three. Congrats on your excellent numbers and good luck.

Make sure you have as many referees as possible fill out the Form C for Stanford.

Like everyone on this thread, I am just going to speculate. Let's break it down by school:

Yale: 10% chance
Harvard: 30% chance
Stanford: 40% chance

Overall, you've probably got something like a 1 in 2 chance of getting into at least one of the big three.

I would reverse your Harvard and Stanford percentages.
