It's still a numbers game. The only schools where that stops being true (to a limited extent) are Yale and Stanford.

You will likely have as good a chance as anyone, but I'd highly recommend taking at least a year off school to learn how to be a functioning human being in the world before applying. It might help you get over this fixation on not going to merely "a" top school, as though that's a real category.
