Out of curiosity, for those of you who has been accepted to Chicago, Michigan, Yale, etc., what have your stats been like?

Hello everyone! I have a bit of a predicament. I could apply to graduate school this year and graduate early or I could graduate on time. Right now my Classics GPA is a 3.7 (civilization is not my thing; I get As in all language courses and seminars though) and my cumulative GPA is a 3.5 (I had a really nasty non-Classics course), I've held four research positions, been awarded two research grants, presented at two conferences and am presenting at couple more (in addition to the normal undergraduate conferences), been published in an undergraduate Classics journal, and my professors say that my writing is exceptionally good. One of my professors said that I am a remarkably talented scholar. I have taken Latin and Greek every semester in college and I've always taken the highest level of Latin and except for my freshman year, I have done the same with Greek. I really want to go to University of Michigan (PhD or Masters in Classical Studies, maybe Ancient Philosophy) and University of Texas. Will I have a chance at those or should I wait a year and raise my GPA a bit (I'd be able to have a 3.9 Classics GPA and a 3.7 normal GPA since I overload my schedule and am now only in Classics courses)?
