Medical School requirements

Each American or Canadian accredited medical school holds an admission process which, among other selection criteria, requires you to present your GPA and valid MCAT score. On average, most medical schools look for applicants with MCAT scores of 30 and above, and GPA of at least 3.3. This statement is of course very crude, since many factors can change individual application forms.

How to get this information from medical schools?

Most schools hold information about class profiles, in which you can actually see the stats of enrolled students from last year, together with average GPAs and MCAT scores. Simply go to the institude's admission pages, and look under admission requirements and process.
