I ended up with a 28P (9,10,9) and have a 3.4 science, 3.68 overall. Everything else is pretty good (letters of rec, ec's). Do you guys know if schools offer partial scholarships and would I make the cutoffs? For instance, UNECOM looks like an awesome school to study at, but tuition of almost 37,000🙁 . While New Jersey isn't quite as appealing but only 22,000. I would like to think money isn't a huge factor, but that is nearly a 60,000 difference over 4 years in loans.😕 😕

I know that some schools have 30 MCAT and 3.5 cutoff point for the more prestigious scholarships. There are a various other scholarships that have stipulations such as underserved areas, military service, indian reservations, etc. There are lots of scholarships out there. You just have to do a little research.
