UWash is probably a poor choice if you're not from the region (assuming you don't mean washU...i see SLU is on your list), but the rest of those reaches seem fine

Your MCAT is at the 10th% for Duke and Mayo and Mayo only has 53 spots!
You are not WWAMI so UW is low yield.
There are 8 schools on your list where you have a fair to good chance at an interview. A few more targets are probably indicated.

Oakland, Quinnipiac, Tufts, Boston, Temple, Drexel, Vermont, Penn State, and Creighton are all solid picks.

Colombianos are not generally considered under-represented in medicine, though your language skills will still be appreciated!

That's good to know. Thank you!
