Stanford, USC Keck, Emory and Washington University were unrealistic with a MCAT of 512. UA Tucson, UC Irvine, Geisinger, SUNY Downstate admit few non residents with a MCAT of 512 and no connection to the state. I suggest these schools if you reapply:
Utah
Loma Linda (if you fit their mission)
TCU
Creighton
St. Louis
Rosalind Franklin
Loyola
Medical College Wisconsin
Western Michigan
Oakland Beaumont
Wayne State
Tulane
NOVA MD
Wake Forest
Virginia Commonwealth
Eastern Virginia
George Washington
Georgetown
Penn State
Drexel
Temple
Jefferson
Hackensack
Einstein
New York Medical College
Albany
Vermont
Quinnipiac
Belmont (when it opens)
Also apply to DO schools and I suggest these:
AZCOM
TUNCOM
ATSU-KCOM
KCU-COM
DMU-COM
MU-COM
CUSOM
PCOM
NYITCOM
Touro-NY
