Why’s that? I really want to be competitive applicant and I’m worried that this MCAT will hold me back from schools where my GPA wouldn’t. Don’t want an ego stroke but just want a really honest opinion on what I look like in terms of competitiveness as an applicant, especially in upper-mid tier schools (not talking about NYU or Harvard or T10s lol, but what schools DO you think I’d be a good match for?)
Okay thanks, this is super insightful and definitely helped to put it in perspective for me! What are sub score “minimums”?
125 is the highest sub section ”minimum” I‘ve seen. You have to remember that there are students with 3.8+ and 520+ who don’t get into any of upper-tier schools. Meanwhile, there are students below those stats and still get into great schools (my friend got into NYU with a 3.8 and 517, while another friend with 3.9 and 524 got rejected). The difference is that your stats are only part of the application, and your application being good as a whole is the most important part of the admissions process. If I were you, I would rather focus on perfecting my secondaries rather than worrying about retakes.Okay thanks, this is super insightful and definitely helped to put it in perspective for me!
