What is a Good MCAT Score? MCAT Scores 2020-2021 | MedEdits

Taking the MCAT is one of the most anxiety provoking parts of the medical school admissions process for many applicants. After years of study, focus, and commitment, it is stressful to think that your success may hinge on your MCAT scores. Be sure to study the current trends in medical school school admissions statistics.

Because many medical schools consider the MCAT score the most important objective criteria of your med school application, it is important to use every strategy you can to take the MCAT as few times as possible and earn the highest score possible (ideally on your first or second attempt). While your GPA is also an extremely important medical school admission stat, the MCAT is the only measure medical schools can use to compare you objectively to other applicants. Earning the highest MCAT score possible or one near the average MCAT scores for accepted students at your target medical schools should be your goal. Learn tips on how to study for the MCAT and become familiar with tools such as Khan Academy MCAT and other AAMC resources which can help your score.

In this video you will learn what is a good MCAT score and where you should apply to medical school based on your MCAT score.
