To apply to Baylor you will need to use the TMDSAS application system (different than AMCAS)
If you do that, may as well add UTSW, McGovern, & maybe others.

What about Duke?

Some of the state public schools on your list admit few non residents with no connection to the state. Schools may average your MCAT scores.
U Penn and Washington University are unrealistic with your MCAT scores. I suggest these schools from your list:
Albany Medical College
Cooper Medical School of Rowan University
Creighton - Nebraska
Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS)
Emory
Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth
George Washington University School of Medicine
Georgetown
Hackensack Meridian School of Medicine
Lewis Katz Temple
Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine
Pennsylvania State
RUSH
Rutgers NJ Medical School
Rutgers, Robert Wood Johnson Medical School
Saint Louis University (SLU)
Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University
The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University
Tufts University School of Medicine
University of Miami
University of Michigan School of Medicine
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine
USF Health Morsani
Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine
Wake Forest University School of Medicine
Wayne State University School of Medicine
You could add these schools:
New York Medical College
Quinnipiac
Western Michigan
Drexel
Jefferson
TCU
Medical College Wisconsin

- 850 Non-clinical volunteering: Dance teacher for children with special needs & 1 other school org
- 900 Leadership: President of 2 service organizations

So I'm unsure for Rush. You have a lot of hours, but I'm not sure these activities will align with what they would be looking for with respect to service orientation. Also, your work as a dance teacher seems to be a natural extension of teaching from your hobbies, though I'll give you a little credit fo teaching to special needs students. What activities show service orientation where you are in community with those experiencing distress?

Casper and PREview?

Thank you! Do you by chance think I am missing any that I should definitely apply to?

Add the ones I listed.

Both service organizations I served as president were for vulnerable populations. One of them being UNICEF, advocating and providing relief to children in third world countries and the other being an organization that provides clean drinking water for rural villages in third world countries. Teaching dance to special needs students was also service to my local community.

So both of these involve fundraising for international vulnerable populations, perhaps some social advocacy. But it doesn't show service orientation according to the AAMC competency definition. I still don't see any service orientation hours.
