Average MCAT Score & GPA for Top 100 Medical Schools (Complete List)

What MCAT Score Do I Need For Med-School Admission?

We've heard this question a lot from students who sign up to work with us. Some students know their score goal, others don't.

The first step is knowing what schools require what scores. You don't want to aim for a 520 if you're applying to University of Washington, or Vermont, or Utah.

To make this easier, we've created a full table of the average GPA and MCAT score for the top 100 medical schools.

Other questions this post was designed to answer:

Where should I apply to maximize my chance of med-school admission?

Is my MCAT score good enough to get into med-school?

Is my GPA good enough to get into med-school?

Unlike with the MCAT, this is a chart that will give you a straightforward answer to your questions.
