MD aspiration Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 I wanted to explore my options when applying to medical school next year and was wondering what specific gpa requirements for some schools are in America. I believe that many schools in States place a greater emphasis on the MCAT relative to GPA. Also do you think that a 3.7 gpa is good enough, with a MCAT score of 30.

xClashx Posted December 13, 2013 Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 Depends on the uni. Probably not "Good" but, its something you can work with. Try improving both MCAT and your GPA since you will in some schools competing for international spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hopefulMD12 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 AAMC data states from a couple of years ago (so its probably a bit tougher now) that the average Canadian accepted to US schools has stats ~3.75 GPA and ~33.4 MCAT. Definitely try improving the MCAT if you can. About ~10% of international applicants get in anywhere, so it will be tough. PM me if you have more questions.
