Your list is good and you should receive several interviews.

Which schools would you suggest removing to narrow it down to maybe 35 schools? Thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it!

You could remove Rosalind Franklin, Illinois, Indiana, Brown, Stony Brook, Maryland.

Thank you! Could I ask for reasoning behind those just to understand better? Also do you think I should consider applying to DO schools as safeties?
 
Rosalind Franklin and Brown interview less than 5% of OOS applicants and the others are state public schools that prefer their own residents and accept few non residents with no connection to the state.

@Faha Could I ask your opinion on something? I got 3 C's in science classes in a quarter (family issues during that time) but was still able to maintain the gpa above, pretty much almost straight As all other quarters. Do you think this significantly affects my chances? Again, thanks so much for your help.

No. The overall sGPA matters.
 
You should remove UC Riverside (unless you have connections to Riverside county) and add California University of Science and Medicine. No need to apply DO.
