Underdog here:
3.72 GPA 23Q on MCAT...I honestly can't stand standerdized tests. I totally feel for the people frustrated with the MCAT; I worked my but off and I just couldn't get my scores close to double digits. I've already submitted primary applic to 12 schools, finished 3 secondaries, working on another 3, and haven't heard from the other 6. All the secondaries are non-screening though.
I totally agree with fiddler though:
I believe 4 years of consistent grades (nothing below a B+ in my case) should hopefully say something about my academic capabilities. I don't even know if I have a chance due to my MCAT scores but I thought I'd try my luck and see what happens.

fiddler said:The discrepancy is that he is capable of high performance for a short time. So the potential is there but he is unable to put forth the effort for a period of years to earn his GPA's.
It makes the adcoms nervous because medical school is not a sprint but a huge long marathon.
