You have several state public schools on your list that accept few non residents with your GPA and no connection to the state. Unless you are currently on the WL at one of these schools you should delete Marshall, Maryland, Alabama, SUNY Downstate and Wayne State. Duke is a far reach with your GPA. I suggest these schools:
Your NC state public schools
Wake Forest
West Virginia
Eastern Virginia
Virginia Commonwealth
Penn State
Drexel
Temple
Jefferson
George Washington
Seton Hall
NOVA MD
Quinnipiac
Albany
New York Medical College
Oakland Beaumont
Western Michigan
Rosalind Franklin
Medical College Wisconsin
Creighton
The GPA-MCAT grid shows you have only a 50% chance for a MD acceptance.
Also apply broadly to at least 6 DO schools.
