lots of ecs: varsity athlete, hospital volunteering, videographer for charities to promote awareness, lots of volunteering and worked as a science teacher for the last two years with kids who have Aspergers
I only have a half year of math.... so had to leave some obvious ones out
Would appreciate thoughts.. obviously have some dream schools..

It would help to know your state of residence, as this can play a huge role. Overall, you have a very solid application and should get in somewhere as long as you apply broadly. Rush, SUNY Downstate and Eastern Virgina all have an IS bias in acceptances, so if you are OOS at those schools, it will be harder to get in, especially Rush. GW and Georgetown are in your stat range, but can be deceiving as the both get 12,000+ applicants each year. The rest of you schools seem good, given that Columbia, Northwestern, NYU, and Dartmouth are likely reach schools. I would look into adding a couple mid-tier schools such as Albany, Hofstra, Drexel, Creighton, St. Louis, NYMC, RFU, and Wake Forest. Also, add as many dream schools as you have money for, as you never know when a school will want you. You stand a great chance and should get several acceptances, but I would still apply broadly due to some of the randomness of applying to medical schools.
