Default NL50 preflop decisions

I am just starting to play poker again after a long hiatus. I thought it would be interesting to get feedback from people on the best way to play certain hands preflop at 6 handed FTP NL50. To narrow the scope of the topic, let's assume hero is in the BB position in all scenarios. BB is an interesting position because it is where we lose the most $$$ compared to other positions at the table, correct? Please indicate whether each situation is a raise, call, or fold, or if it is heavily read-dependent. Let's also assume 6 100 BB stacks. Players not mentioned below are folding.

Thanks for the feedback everyone

1) AQo vs UTG limp, UTG +1 raise to 3.5BB and CO call
2) AQs vs UTG +1 raise to 3.5BB and button reraise
3) 66 vs UTG raise to 3.5BB
4) JJ vs UTG +1 raise to 3.5BB and CO reraise to 12 BB
5) QQ vs UTG +1 raise to 3.5 BB and CO reraise to 12 BB
5) JQs vs UTG limp, button raise to 3.5 BB
6) KQs vs UTG+1 limp, MP raise to 3.5 BB, button cold call

1 - 3bet (utg limps generally not v.strong)
2 - fold (you run into AK a lot here, leaving you not a lot of flops to hit)
3 - call (flop a set plz)
4 - stats dependant (fold to nit 3bet, 4bet a lagish 3bet (30/23+)
5 - fold (oop)
6 - fold(oop and its not a great hand)

1. Raise Pot
2. Fold without reads, reraise if your gonna play the hand and the table has been very active. As in UTG+1 raises all the time, and button is raising to isolate with position.
3. 70/30 C/R
4. Need reads to really decide on this one. Most likely I RR. If it doesnt feel right against CO, I am folding.
5. Again these depend on the players. This one is about the same as JJ.
5. Fold
6. Fold or squeeze raise against MP.

Cant put alot of thought into alot of these since you dont have reads, and they are all player dependent. As a quick example, I normally discredit most limpers if they are your average player, however if a 16/14 limps UTG, my eyes raise a bit.

this seems a little odd to me. Why are all the open raises 7x? I think you rarely see that. Its much more common for 3-4x
