Great DAT score, 9 schools is on the low end for a 3.2 sgpa but with a 22/23 DAT you could get away with it haha. I think you have a good school list. I personally wouldnt add NYU bc I think you will get in elsewhere and you probably want to avoid the extremely high amount of debt NYU will put you in. Utah and UoP would definitely be a reach. LECOM is a cheaper private school to consider adding. I think you will definitely get interviews and acceptance (as long as you interview well). I had a 3.2 sgpa and 21 aa/ts and had no problem getting interviews. Good luck!
