Hello,

From the information provided, it's hard to assess competitiveness. For example, your experience is strong in leadership and responsibility, obviously, but how have you performed relative to accomplished peers - adcoms at top programs will want to see you excel in this capacity. Also, your goals will be a critical element in terms of how they mesh with your overall experience and the case you make for them. From the information provided, I'd say HBS and Stanford are reasonable-to-high reaches, Darden is on par-to-reasonable reach, and Judge is on par.

Best regards,
