University of Miami screens (need a 3.6 and a 24 MCAT out of state, or a 3.2 and a 24 MCAT in state)

Remember that very, very few schools screen like you'd think. Many just have certain cutoff MCAT/GPA values, which tend to be much lower than those numbers reflected in the matriculating class. Don't think that they'll pour over your application and look at all aspects of your application as they don't have the time. You'll need to be realistic on how competitive your application really is for each school before you part with your $$$ for secondary applications. Don't depend on the screening to do that for you.
