Hi all,
According to https://www.aamc.org/download/321494/data/2013factstable17.pdf , the average cGPA/sGPA/MCAT of matriculants in 2012 is 3.76/3.63/31.3.
However, my school, the University of Michigan, posted that the average U of M graduate that matriculates into medical school has a 3.63/3.55/31.2.
Does this mean that the mean statistics for schools are a bit misleading? I'm just a bit curious. Do adcoms often compare applicants with previous applications from the same school? Could the statistics be skewed in the other direction for other schools?
If anyone has any insight, that'd be awesome!
Appreciate it.
