Strongly correlated?
It is one of the strongest individual predictors but I think it's pretty loosely correlated. Here's a meta analysis on the correlation:

My n=1 experience is that the MCAT is a fairly poor predictor of success for a lot of people. My MCAT was a 25 and my USMLE was in the upper 220's.
