Any volunteering or extracurricular besides job shadowing + research?

Throw in University of Maryland, UCLA, UConn. Some of them are not very OOS friendly but they are worth trying to get into.

No other ECs during college might hurt you, but stats wise you're on target.

do you know if I have a chance for stony brook and buffalo? do you happen to know the stats of anyone who got into the 2 schools?

I got into Buffalo but not Stony Brook. Stats wise you are right there, but like I said, a lack of ECs might be an issue. Stony is much more competitive than Buffalo.
