Remove Rush and Georgetown since they expect far more clinical exposure hours than you have. You also have many schools that are unrealistic with your stats and ECs. I suggest these schools with your stats and ECs:
Einstein
Drexel
Keck
Jefferson
Tufts
UC Davis
UC Irvine
UC Riverside (only if you are from that region)
Pitt
U Rochester
Wake Forest
You could add these schools:
TCU-UNT
Rosalind Franklin
Medical College Wisconsin
Western Michigan
Oakland Beaumont
NOVA MD
Virginia Commonwealth
Eastern Virginia
George Washington
Temple
Penn State
Hackensack
New York Medical College
Albany
Vermont
Quinnipiac
