Are there any schools will not give interviews if you have less than 90 units?

Hi,

I'm applying for the next cycle, and I plan to apply without my 3rd year spring quarter grades. However, if I do so, I'll only have 127 quarter units, which is less than the 135 quarter units that most medical schools state for their admissions minimum. But I'll for sure have my BS degree by the end of my fourth year.

So my question is are there any schools (e.g., schools in CA, NY, and other states) that will not give an applicant an interviews simply because he/she doesn't yet have 135 quarter units?

Thanks!

Assuming that you're on the path to graduation at your undergrad by the time you would matriculate at the med school, I think you should be fine. Many people apply after their third year, after all. Some med schools might later in the application cycle ask you to submit your spring/any additional grades, but I don't think they'd reject you based on that.
 
so it's okay to apply and just say I'll update any schools that want my spring quarter grades?
