I just edited the post! at UTMB I just ran errands like distributing books, crosswords puzzles, and games to patients and guest. I also assisted hospital staff with everyday needs or whatever they needed help that day.
Yes! Texas does have 4 schools now, I am going to apply to all of them. I came up with this list that are friendly to OOS applicants and if my GPA and DAT stats are average/ above average.

there are still only 3 texas schools on your list
and your list is WAY too long
your gpas are above the average matriculant (3.55) as are your DATs (20.5)
you get interview invites and acceptances from mission fit
"friendly to OOS applicants" and "stats are average/above average" are not mission fit
you should look at schools that accept Texas residents rather than OOS, those schools will likely be closer geographically to texas
these schools you should consider cutting out:
LECOM School of Dental Medicine
Western University of Health Sciences
Detroit Mercy
University of Louisville
Tufts University
Marquette University
Midwestern University – Illinois
Nova Southeastern University
Touro College of Dental Medicine
University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine
Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine
University of Michigan School of Dentistry

your list should have a few reach schools, mostly in-range schools and some safety schools
come back when you have a more concise list...
