Besides Minnesota, I think you'll get into nearly all these schools.

You're in with money at the majority of that list.

Thank you for your kind comment, but are you sure? With the exception of the last three my GPA is under the median everywhere else. MY LSAT is pretty good, but there are quite a few people who pull 160s that I will have to compete with. My main concern is whether or not I should add a few more schools in the 30s and 40s range in order to have a better chance of acceptance at a 30s/40s caliber school.

It's much more important to hit the median LSAT than the median GPA, so you should apply to every school with a 165 median or lower, that you're interested in attending.
