You have done everything right up to this stage of the game and your credentials place you in the competitive pool for a top five school. Now you can enter the next phase of this process which is submitting the strongest possible application that you possibly can. This means compelling essays, strong recommendations, impressive interviews and the like. If these controllable aspects of your application are as strong as the rest of your credentials, then you should see very impressive results. Just remember that to a lot of these schools you are competing with the best candidates in the world so competition is fierce.
