Advice narrowing down schools

Hey I usually don't post on this site but I need honest feedback on my list of schools. As you'll see, ideally I would like to stay in the northeast but pending the official MCAT score I'll take a shot elsewhere in the country. In general, what I'm looking for in a school is a relaxed atmosphere and strong student cohesion. Any advice on schools to drop/add is much appreciated!

You might consider adding Tufts and BU.

Definitely need to add all of your home state schools and some more of the less competitive privates. Should probably consider cutting out some of the big name reach schools on your list. Certainly they are great schools, but a 3.6 GPA is well below average for them. Better to put your money toward more likely acceptances, IMO. You'll have a much better idea of where you'll be competitive once you get your MCAT.
