Not sure what your question is... You are fine for low-mid but out of reach for top.
 
My question is don't you think the odd breakdown will negatively hurt me and give me even less of a chance than I already had. If you could also give me some mid-tier schools I would appreciate that. I do not know exactly. Like Tufts and Albert Einstein would that be mid or top?
I think your breakdown is fine considering you have a good GPA... You will get in somewhere assuming EC's/LORs/interview skill are there. I am not familiar with the competitiveness and classification of school though... but search SDN and you will find many threads.

Out of curiosity, what was your AAMC average? Is the score you received substantially lower than your average? Maybe you should consider a retake. Or is it just +/- 1 or 2 points your average, in which case is to be expected.

Either way a 30 is enough to get you in somewhere. I don't think getting two 9's is that bad.

My average was about a 32 but much more even. I only got a 9 in verbal once. Besides that everything was always in the double digits.

If that's the case, I think your score is fine. Just run with it and focus your energy on essays and whatnot.
