<p>You'll probably get a more accurate idea of chances if you do a search on the stats profiles.</p>

<p>Many people don't know the exact admissions stats of all the schools you are applying to because a lot of them are very state specific. Like, me coming from Florida, I'm not going to know what you need to get into Arizona. So you're going to have a hard time finding someone who can give you an accurate chance for all of the schools. </p>

<p>But I'll chance you for USF. As an out of state student you'll probably have a slightly harder chance of getting in. I know plenty of instate students that have gotten in with similar stats, but out of state could be a little difficult. With that said i think if you play up your condition and you're ec's you will probably be pleasantly surprised.</p>

<p>I don't know what your actual chances are, considering many of your schools are OOS (Except Maryland). Your low SATs are going to hurt you at places like OSU, where the averages for in state students is slightly above your scores. Your ECs are extensive, but not necessarily diverse. I would highlight a few good ones (such as the NFL activities) from each category on your application. A possible "hook" for you would be your Tourettes. Have you thought about maybe writing about it in your essay? It could be an excellent topic if written in a unique way.
Overall, your scores are low for many of the schools you're looking at. Therefore, your essay and ECs will be a key to your application.You need to portray the part of you that your SAT and grades (to a smaller extent) cannot.
If I had to give you a "safe" school, I'd say OU and Az St. I can't speak for the others you mentioned.
best of luck</p>
