<p>My D1 was recently admitted to FSU Med. Honestly, a high MCAT (30+) a strong GPA in core courses, competitive ECs and a solid interview will get you admitted to most med schools. Conversely, if you attended Cornell and earned a 25 MCAT and a 3.0 GPA you’re not likely to get into any med school. </p>
<p>I suspect the NYU guy is simply biased. It happens.</p>
<p>If you don’t earn the high MCAT and GPA even graduating from Harvard won’t get you admitted to an allopathic U.S. med school.</p>
