UNC, Florida State, Utah, Alabama, Maryland, U Wisconsin, Oregon accept very few non residents with a MCAT of 510 and no connection to the state
Brown is a far reach. I suggest adding these schools:
TCU-UNT

Loyola
Medical College Wisconsin
Oakland Beaumont
NOVA MD
Wake Forest
Temple
Seton Hall
New York Medical College
Albany
Vermont
Quinnipiac
