<p>...and yet at princeton you require a lower science GPA to get accepted to med school than the national average. there's a difference between the curve in a pre-med class in 2005 and the overall average GPA in 2001 present in the link you cited.</p>
<p>meanwhile, the range of acceptances at MIT range from 2.67-4.0, and denials range from 2.69-3.61. there's no correlation w/ apparent inflation whatsoever.</p>
<p>if you go to a top undergrad school it improves your chances of getting into a top med school, but has minimal impact on your chances of getting into A med school.</p>
<p>pleasure, as always</p>
