Remove West Virginia since they accept few non residents with your MCAT and no connection to the state. Dartmouth is a far reach. You should receive several DO interviews. You could receive MD interviews if you improve your MCAT score. You could add these DO schools:
TUNCOM
UIWSOM
ACOM
MU-COM
VCOM (all schools except Monroe)
CUSOM
