parachutes Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I just received my MCAT score today: 36M (11 VR, 10 PS, 15 BS). I sent in my AMCAS already thinking I was on the low end for MCAT scores, and now I was wondering if you guys thought I should add any more schools to my application. So far I've got: Albany Medical College Albert Einstein College of Medicine Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine Dartmouth Medical School Indiana University School of Medicine Jefferson Medical Coll. of Thomas Jefferson Univ. Michigan State University New York Medical College Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Scien SUNY Upstate Medical University University of Chicago - Pritzker University of Hawaii John A. Burns Sch. of Med. University of Minnesota Medical School-Minneapolis Wayne State University School of Medicine Also, should I be worried about my M in the writing sample? I'm pretty disappointed about that. I appreciate your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THX Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Awesome score! The M sucks but the US schools don't care (Canadian schools do however..) Your list looks good, but if you have a pretty GPA to boot I'd add Yale and Northwestern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In_Valid Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Isn't Yale really hard to get into? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THX Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Isn't Yale really hard to get into? Yeah, but with a 36 why not give it a try? Yale interviews a lot of internationals too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alastriss Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 Your M may be overlooked if you make sure any piece of writing you submit is well articulated. Wit a 36, and according to LizzyM, you should be applying to all the top tiers, but not necessarily getting your hopes up as it is pretty tough. You'd be surprised who gets in, I knew of a few my year who weren't exceptionally smart but got into WashU @ St. Louis and Yale. You won't know till you give it a shot.
