Accepted with a 491 MCAT but strong GPA and extracurriculars?
Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone has gotten accepted to medical school with a 491 MCAT but a strong GPA (3.8+), solid extracurriculars, and a strong personal statement. I have extensive volunteer and clinical experience, leadership roles, and strong letters of recommendation, basically everything else in my application is solid besides my MCAT score.
If anyone has had success or knows of schools that look more holistically at applicants with similar stats, I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences or advice!
