any new schools that may open for 2018 ( Roseman, Seton Hall,etc.)
You are not competitive for most OOS public state schools with your MCAT scores and they all give preference to their own residents to varying degrees.
Also consider applying to at least 6 DO schools.

Would you think I stand a chance? or consider reapplying next cycle and aim for a higher MCAT?

You have a chance this cycle but I recommend adding DO schools also. You have taken the MCAT twice with almost identical scores. Many schools average scores so you would need a significantly higher 3rd score to improve your chances next year.

I see. Are you familiar with how they might average the MCAT scores?

You have a 506 and a 507. If you increased your score to 511 your average for 3 tests is 508. The same can be done for subsections.

I suggest:

Temple

Jefferson

Drexel

EVMS

Rosy Franklin

Loyola

WVU

MCW

SLU

Creighton

Loma Linda (but read their list of don'ts)

Albany

NYMC

VCU

Tulane

U VM

Oakland-B

Uniformed Services University/Hebert (just be aware of the military service commitment)

Netter

UCD
UCI
UCR (IF you're from the Inland Empire)

Any DO school. I can't recommend Touro-NY, or LUCOM, for different reasons

Makes sense, thanks for your suggestions.

Thank you so much for your suggestions. I plan to apply 35+ MD schools, are there any more that I can add to the list? What do you think of the Arizona schools?
