is it just me or does the school information on the MSAR about GPA and MCAT seem unrealistically high? I know that median is usually higher then the mean, but still. Or is this just all in me head?

😍The MSAR has little reason to exaggerate.
Eventually, I came to the realization that I suck and my dreams died on that oddly beautiful Spring day in a Border's next to a snickering comic book reader.
My lesson? Don't stare too long at school numbers or it'll make you sad.
my bad 🙂Man...you guys are doin work today. 👍
Biggest difference is the fact that the MSAR reports the data for everyone accepted. So the guy with a 3.9 and 40S who gets into 10 schools is pulling all their averages way up even though he only matriculates into one of them.
If it's depressing to a 4.0/35 applicant with 2 acceptances and 5 interviews, imagine how the rest of us feel 😉Looking at the MSAR is humbling. Perusing the SDN website is depressing.
