As someone who had very similar extracurriculars, the schools you mentioned would be reaches/hard targets. It's not that your extracurriculars "aren't good enough," it's just that those schools are very hard to get into and it depends on the rest of your application. You might get into them, you might not, but it's still worth putting an application in. Do some research on target and safety schools that you might enjoy, but no need to completely give up on them.
