What's the min MCAT score for admission
I read somewhere that ave is about 504 but MSM accepts a range of MCAT scores what is most important is that you fit and align with the STRONG mission of the school.

I wouldn't risk it. I signed up for it even though it only says recommended, I wanna take no chances at all
 
Has anyone received a secondary from here yet? If so, can you please post the prompts?
 
Does anyone know if preview is mandatory? I take my preview test early August, hoping it won’t delay my app

It says “strongly recommended” but it’s not required!

In their FAQ page about preview it says it won’t negatively affect your application/evaluation if you don’t take it, and adcoms are instructed to disregard missing preview scores in your evaluation, so I’m not planning on taking it.

How strict do they screen for GPA, for us low GPA high MCAT folks, and if they screen any advice on getting around it?
 
Did any one get secondary yet ?
no not yet. I am thinking about just emailing them. Like even an acknowledgement of AMCAS primary would have been helpful to know that they got our application.
 
Secondary received just now

I feel like I'm overthinking these answers though. Like I know how to answer it, the explanation just seems weird.
 
For those getting secondaries, do you have MCAT scores already? still waiting on mine
 
Yes my mcat is already in!

I see that the last one says says brief statement and 9999 characters. Do you think we should air on the side of a couple of sentences brief or a couple of paragraphs brief?
