EC's and MCAT are good IMO, however GPA will keep you out of some places. I would recommend applying broadly to the newer school and adding in a few of the more well established schools and I imagine you might get some love!
 
These are schools where you could receive an interview with your stats:
ACOM
ARCOM
BCOM
WCU-COM
LMU-DCOM
UP-KYCOM
WVSOM
VCOM (all 3 schools)
UIWSOM
NYIT-Arkansas
RVU-Utah
ATSU-SOMA
any new schools that open for 2018. Apply in June and submit all your secondaries by July.
