Do you have the MSAR? If not buy it(around $25 online). It will help you develop a good, realistic list based on your stats. When you have your list together post it and people will help you refine it based in other metrics.

Is that also in the MSAR? I will take another look. Thank you again.
 
Thank You I have updated my list
Morehouse is a mission-based school.
GW get more than 15K applications.
Do you have the service hours for Rush?
Consider deleting Hofstra, Rochester (stats), U MI.
Jef famously averages MCAT's.
Mercer (OOS).

U Michigan and Mercer accept very few non residents with your MCAT. Remove Morehouse since you are not URM. Emory is a reach. Schools you could add include:
SUNY Buffalo
New York Medical College
Eastern Virginia
Virginia Commonwealth
Oakland Beaumont
Western Michigan
Medical College Wisconsin
St. Louis
Creighton
Tulane

Thank You so much. I am sorry if I seem a bit incompetent. I really didn't expect any of these schools to be in reach until this afternoon.

Does anyone recommend adding Ohio State and Kansas City Missouri to my list? According to the MSAR they take a good amount of people from out of state and my stat match up with both schools. @Faha ?

Your stats match up with state residents that apply to those schools. The OOS applicants accepted have much higher stats and often have connections to the state (attended the undergraduate school, spouse from the state, one or both parents are alumni).

UMKC's OOS students are from their own special program
