I have similar stats (check out my predents) and just got an interview at BU, and I submitted my AADSAS on 8/3/2011, so you should be good!

Your AA and TS are pretty solid, however your PAT needs to be worked on.
Many schools have a minimum 16 or 17 on any section, especially with a section as important as PAT, you may want to reconsider retaking it.
3.22c/3.11s is also on the lower end. Doable, but on the lower end and it might become a problem since you are below average in terms of GPA, but over average on your DATs. Schools will think, well maybe he is a smart guy (doing well on DAT) but just lazy (poor grades in school) not saying those are the reasons, but you get the idea.

With that said, I am in no way trying to bring you down, because like I said your AA and TS are pretty good.
I got a 18AA 17TS 19PAT but with a higher GPA. I have 2 interviews so far.

So, I can't tell you if you will have a chance at specific schools, but you are still competitive but definitely think about boosting that PAT score. GL

Congrats!

I submitted by AADSAS on 6/2/2011 and I still have not been offered an interview at BU yet.

Good job!

Hope I get mine soon, I think BU is a pretty awesome school! :xf:

Also, be aware though that while having an interview is fantastic and means you are in the run, it in no way means you are going to be accepted to keep that in mind. Best of luck!
