Hey so i know you all get this alot but i am just curious about what my chances of getting into pod school are.
3.15 overall gpa
2.93 science gpa
22O MCAT

I got my application verified last week and I already have 2 interview invites but im still nervous if my stats are competitive enough to get accepted so if anyone could help me out that would be great.

Also, what is most important for getting accepted to podiatry school, gpa, mcat, or the interview?
 
You're fine. I have similar stats and got interviews to 8/9 of the schools, and was accepted to 2/2 schools that I've interviewed in.

As far as what the school weigh the most in order to be accepted...all of it! You need the numbers to get an invite, and you need to do well during your interview to get an acceptance. The interviews are really nothing to be stressed about, just be yourself and you'll surly meet what the schools are looking for.
 
Your science GPA is a little low, but your MCAT is about where they want itto be. Anything above a 3.0 GPA and a 21 MCAT seems to be sufficient for someof the schools. With a 2.93 science GPA it is important that you work reallyhard your first semester. Pod school is much harder and busier than undergrad.They will let you in but it is your responsibility to stay in, staycompetitive, pass boards and get a residency. It's a very long road and a lotof hard work, just make sure you are 100% committed to this before you start in the fall.
