I can't find list of national GPA and MCAT for Osteopathic schools
Started by dakims
ha i was posting that exact same website.
OP you can also go to princetonreview.com and most schools have their stuff listed.
You can pay $15 and get that info from http://grad-schools.usnews.rankings.../grad/directory/dir-med/dirmedindex_brief.php.
US News includes a lot more info about the schools and that's why it costs $15 and PR is free.

I was feeling nice, so here's the GPA/MCAT averages from US News & World report for Fall 2005 admissions. I think this is the most up to date stats the US News has, for now.
Some of the numbers posted are not terribly accurate. I would suggest checking individual school websites for most recent and accurate data. Example: DMU's class of 2011 (2007 data) has an average MCAT of 27 and average GPA of 3.65.
Yeah, you're right, but that's only +1 point overall on the MCAT average for DMU. I'd say that the 2005 numbers I posted from US News aren't that far off.
That was very nice of you! 😀 Oh and I tried on my suit pants and they fit!! Woo hoo!! 😉
YEY! I knew they would. thanks so much! is this from the 2007 edition?

You're welcome and No, those are the stats from 2005.
Not really. From what I've seen, the numbers from US News are in line with information available on the schools websites. Have you seen different numbers somewhere or are you just surprised at schools with lower MCAT averages, like PCSOM, VCOM and WVSOM?
I am personally surprised by how low some of those averages are, particularly for the MCAT. If those are averages, then that means people are scoring below that......22s and 23s are pretty low. Hell, I scored a 21 on my diagnostic after not having many of the classes for 3 or 4 years.
I think some of those averages are kind of old.
Just to let everyone know, the stats I posted are what US News & World Report has reported for 2005. I guess there's a chance that the schools reported old data, but that seems unlikely.
Also, remember that people here on SDN are more likely to have higher stats than the average applicant (that and SDNers only comprise ~4% of people applying to med school).
Maybe the stats don't seem that shocking to me because I have a sh*tty MCAT.

I have also seen on occasion schools self reporting accepted student data rather than matriculant data. These numbers would be very different also as higher stats people would tend to drop out of the data pool for matriculant data.

These are the numbers that USNews collected regarding the fall 2005 matriculating class, which USNews reported in 2007, calling it the 2008 report.
