I just got my MCAT back today, and kinda bombed it with a 504 (126/124(fml)/126/127). I'm trying to create a school list, as my AMCAS was submitted in June for verification but without any schools added. A synopsis of my application includes: ORM, 3.91 cumulative / 3.75 science GPA, 2,000 hours of clinical work at a Scribe, 300 hours with COVID vaccine/testing, 1,750 hours of non-clinical work at the family business and in food, 750 hours of research with publication authorship, and approximately 500 hours of community service with underserved communities. Personal statement and the app has a decent story to medicine with an emphasis on underserved and immigrant health.
So when making this school list... Is there some leeway between median GPA (on MSAR), and balancing it with a decent GPA? Is there like a range of MCAT scores on MSAR that would be suitable for me on MSAR maybe? Is there like a hard cut off? For example, one friend got into a school with a 513 median with a 506 MCAT. I'm also going to be applying to DO schools. Any advice on this would be great. Thanks so much!
