Your SMP GPA will help you among reinvention friendly programs. Ask your program director for suggestions.

Get to 150 hours with food pantry minimum.

RWJMS, Hawaii, UCLA and UMKC admit very few non residents with your stats. I suggest these MD schools:
Maryland
George Washington
Drexel
Temple
Jefferson
Penn State
Hackensack
Albany
NYMC
Vermont
Quinnipiac
Virginia Commonwealth
Eastern Virginia
West Virginia
Wake Forest
NOVA MD
Belmont
TCU
Creighton
St. Louis
Rosalind Franklin
Medical College Wisconsin
Oakland Beaumont
Wayne State
Alice Walton (when it opens)
You could add CUSOM, ATSU-KCOM, KCU-COM to your DO list.

I see a few of these schools have average matriculant MCATs of 515-516. Do I have a strong enough app elsewhere to make up for my lower score?

Some of these schools reward reinvention and you have a SMP GPA of 3.83 and good ECs.
