at 12 years old, you're probably feeling a little self-conscious about how your body is changing. you are right that a bmi of 18.7 is underweight, but as long as you eat a healthy diet, you should be ok. (you most certainly do not weigh too much)
your body will continue to change, so the proportions you have now will most likely not be the proportions you have next year.
be proud of your height! you may not like being the tallest girl in your class, but as you get older, you will love how clothes look on you. hold your head high!

You are only 12 try not to worry so much about you what your weight is, your body is going through a lot of changes. But to answer your question you are definitely not overweight by any means. It also depends on the structure of your body.

BMI is a tool usually used for older teens or adults, so do not judge yourself by it just yet.
Your weight is normal for your age. Just stay active doing things you enjoy and eat a balanced diet and you will be fine.

You are actually just right, but you can't change your weight distribution. If you would like to tone your thighs, do thigh workouts, but other than that consider yourself very fortunate.

i'm 5' 7" and I weigh 115, and I'm definitely not fat. So no, you're not fat. It's pretty much normal.
