This "inflation" might be an illusion: it's possible that SDNers who score below 20 are less willing to post up their scores in the first place.

Why do you think I am taking my DAT again on Tuesaday?? I think 15 in any section is a big red flag nowadays. Many of my med school friends are switching to dentistry and they have crazy 3.9ish GPA's. It is getting tough out there. I am sure average is up to probably 18-19 not 17 anymore like ADEA claims. Stats are going up like crazy on SDN. But all in all about 10% of total applicants are represented on SDN I believe. not more than that.
