first of all, no one should be looking at the lowest MCAT scores to get into med school. that's just shows you are only willing to do the minimum work required to get in. Second, if you don't do well in the MCATs and your GPA is subpar, what makes you think you will do well in medical school? people's lives are on the line so just passing in medical school is not good enough, this isn't undergrad. frankly, my MCAT score is disgraceful and i'm really ashamed of it. i'm lucky that med schools are even willing to look at me and to have the opportunity for a shot at medicine. if i didn't get in to med school or fail out, it is because i didn't deserve it. don't worry about the numbers and just give it all you got. if it happens then congratulations, if not, too bad. it will probably be better for society that you didn't get in and it is beneficial as well to u because now u have new opportunities opening up in your life (if u want to still do health care, try a PA or a physical therapist or an RN, because obviously you don't have what it takes to get into medical school). sorry, this wasn't meant to be mean but u need to be realistic.
