University of Washington has reputable premed program OPINIONS WANTED
#31
Here are the facts Jack.

MCAT and GPA tables based on ACTUAL admissions from aamc data - https://www.aamc.org/data/facts/applican...lea24.html

The earlier question was if you could score a perfect 45 on the MCAT and get in with a 2.7 GPA. (answer: unlikely) Even with a perfect score on the MCAT (which by the way- uhhh hello?) you're still needing something north of 3.0 to be a contender. Only half of the perfect scoring MCAT applicants even got in with a 3.0 GPA.

It's not worth debating- you can do that over on student doctor forum until your fingers fall off. If you're not exceptional academically, your chances are slim.

I know the nurses will all flip, but the other option is nurse practitioner or even physician assistant. Mid-level providers earn a nice living and are growing at a rate much faster than doctors. HOWEVER, as such, competition is just as stiff. My suggestion is to make a nice list of all the MD, DO, and PA school requirements. Fill them all.
