Your research is on the low side for research powerhouses, however if you feel like you really got memorably achievements from your clinical and non-clinical volunteering then I would apply to only a few of them. Also, what's your major? Schools love unique majors nowadays.

Also, if you can add a little more shadowing that would be great. Particularly in primary care.

Then consider adding NYMC, Albany, Hofstra, Cincinnati, and Tufts.
