Does the MCAT matter for residency/after getting into medical school?

Does Mcat Matter During Residency?

I am wondering if when applying to residency program, one puts his mcat score on his cv or is the mcat not appropriate? Also, for letters of recc, can you ask someone to write one now, knowing u wont be in residency until 3 yrs from now, and then send it out when its time to apply to residency...

Yes but only if it's tattooed somewhere visible.

yes it matters if you're insecure and feel the need to belittle your fellow classmates who scored lower than you. 4th dimensional Trump chess moves to destroy your opponents confidence that they score poorly on STEP1 and then you can have that derm residency all to yourself. Brilliant.

Lol.. its just a ridiculous test you will never see or asked about once you get in. People who know about med school and been through it actually laugh at parents who brag about kids who get high scores in the MCAT.

I think I did have to provide my MCAT score when I applied for a research training grant but for residency? Lol no way.

I had such a high MCAT score that eventhough I barely passed Step 1, I got into my first choice of orthopedics.
