Just wondering if the updated MCAT percentiles will have an effect on admissions this cycle. For instance, I got a 501 and that was previously 54%, but with the updated version I would be at 57%. Would this have any significance in how adcoms view our scores?

Insignificant difference.

Thats a small difference but you should still be able to get into a DO school with that score provided everything else is good and you arent picky on location.
