dancex123 Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hey there, just wondering if it is worth it to apply. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2MD Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Not sure about the 124 but I know of an applicant that was admitted with a GPA below their cutoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMislove Posted September 11, 2016 Report Share Posted September 11, 2016 Saw someone on the forums with a 125 CARS who got interviewed, and I think they got accepted as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickvic Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 know of someone who got interviewed with 123 CARS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMislove Posted September 12, 2016 Report Share Posted September 12, 2016 know of someone who got interviewed with 123 CARS Sorry for this, but I said "holy shit" out loud lol. Honestly kudos to that person. So there you go, there is hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicardoKaká Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 know of someone who got interviewed with 123 CARS Is that person credible? I kind of find that hard to believe, no offense or anything. But when I called Queen's they told me they had cutoffs for each individual section. Hard to believe that it was a 123.... But wow if so, thats fkn amazing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickynote Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Not sure about the 124 but I know of an applicant that was admitted with a GPA below their cutoff. What's the GPA cutoff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabu Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 I also know of someone that received an interview with a 123 in CARS. I highly doubt it's the same person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helicase Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 It likely depends on your other section scores plus your overall score. As in 125/123/128/128 is very different than 130/123/132/132. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

t0ny Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 I just got my MCAT score back and got: Total: 514 130/123/132/129 So you're telling me I actually have a shot with this piece of crap CARS score?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helicase Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 Perhaps? You have a better shot if you are a grad student. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicardoKaká Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 I haven't seen anyone speak up about this on these forums yet... I wonder if that is because no one actually has received an interview/the chances of finding someone who uses these forums and received that score/feeling embarrassed about posting something like that here based on that score. This cycle will be interesting for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dust_Bucket Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Worth the re-write? 511 (126, 130, 129, 126) I'm an undergrad so I wouldn't have the bit of extra lee-way a grad student might get. I don't like the fact that I scored low-ish for CP and PS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 I wonder if someone landed an interview with a 126 Physics/Chem section? I know there was a PhD student who received an invite with 125 last cycle according to the pinned thread, but it's difficult to determine if there are separate MCAT cutoffs for grads vs. non-grads with such a small sample edit: I would apply if I were you though!^ The percentile ranks have changed slightly from the 2015 MCAT, if that helps at all.

tuscanleather Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 I know someone last year who got an interview with 123 in CARS, but had like next to 132 in every other section. Also applying this year in the same boat with 514 total but 124 in CARS...I guess we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remain positive, only ~1.5 months left until we hear back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting when I asked admissions they said they had "section cutoffs" and an "overall cutoff" but maybe a higher overall can out-weigh a lower section score.

Crispy_Dorito Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 It makes sense that they would give you a small break on one score... the 4 new sections are more similar than the old 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
