Go through the MSAR and eliminate the public schools that take very few OOS applicants ( e.g. ND: OOS are native Americans, OK...)
Eliminate the schools where your MCAT is below the median for OOS (e.g.OHSU).
Eliminate mission based schools where you don't fit the mission (CUNY).
Is that your only MCAT?

@gyngyn Where can I see the average MCAT specific to OOS?

Yes, its my only MCAT. That is also confusing me as I am comparing it to the old MCAT percentiles. The percentiles for the new MCAT listed on MSAR are pretty low? I didn't understand that

Your score is comparable to a 31+. Your best OOS matches will be about a 31 median.
You won't get OOS-specific MCAT scores,but you can assume that public schools will take OOS applicants that either have better stats, tuition or personal qualities than they can get IS.

@gyngyn thank you so much! Will remove those. Do you believe I missed any schools?

You list is really, really long...
It's hard to do a good job at that many secondaries.
Bring back your edited list and we'll re-consider!
