Building school list

I’ll be applying this cycle and I’m creating my school list. I am having trouble deciding where to apply since there’s so many places I could apply to and I want to give myself the best shot possible but some of these schools are SO expensive. I am also a TX resident. So for context here are my stats:

GPA: 3.6
DAT:430 AA 450 TS 380 PAT (retook DAT in May and am still waiting on scores)
EC’s: Secretary of a gardening club at school that’s also a 501c3 nonprofit, active member of pre dental club, and a cultural club
Work experience: 1000 hours at a hotel working front desk 1000 hours working as a dental assistant

I do plan to apply very early into the cycle but I’m open to suggestions on where to look into.
