are you URM?
how did you come up with this list?

Geographically, the list makes sense. Have you attended any recruitment events at the schools before applying? Networked with SNDA?

I am a little concerned with the PAT.
i don't like to disagree with you, but 390 PAT is an 18
while not ideal, it's not a deal breaker IMO...
