You do not need to retake the MCAT. I suggest adding these schools:
Penn State
Seton Hall
Eastern Virginia
Virginia Commonwealth
NOVA MD
California University (new school)
Western Michigan
Rutgers accepts very few non residents with your stats and no connection to the state. Dartmouth and Brown are reaches.
