I feel so lost on what to do now. I have no idea whether to apply to other schools or if these are good enough. I feel that my stats are mediocre and am terrified that I wont be accepted this year. This is my second year applying. I am planning on retaking the GRE this month but also scared that I have studied verbal enough to get a higher score.

I also was a bio major from UCI, I applied to California schools and was denied but did get into 2 out of state schools. The competitiveness for CA PT schools is insane I would apply out of state as well.
