Your GPAs are on the low side for UF, UM and USF. You have a decent chance for FSU, FAU, UCF, FIU. You are ok for NOVA and LECOM. I would take off BOSTON from that list since they not OOS friendly.

Eastern Virginia maybe? Over BU for sure.
I got an interview at USF with your stats and I'm OOS there, so you're in their possible range. I'd stick with it.
Jefferson, BU, GW, GU, Albany, NYMC and Temple all get a ton of applicants, maybe other schools with similar score ranges that don't get as much play, since you'd be a crapshoot at them anyway, if you were looking to narrow.

Ok I'll take Boston off and add EVMS. I think I'm going to keep the other schools though. I know they get a lot of applications, but they are all within my stat range. Are there any other schools that don't receive a huge number of applications and are within my stat range? Anyone else have any suggestions or ideas on my chances provided I apply June 1st and submit my secondaries fast?
