Medical school admissions committees such as AUC’s look very closely at an applicant’s MCAT scores when evaluating their readiness for medical school.
That’s not necessarily because we think an MCAT score defines the applicant—it doesn’t. Rather, it’s because studies show that a student’s MCAT performance can be directly correlated to that individual’s future medical school performance.
AUC takes a holistic approach when considering you for our program. The MCAT is just one piece of your overall profile, along with your undergraduate performance and adherence to personal attributes that AUC looks for in a candidate like volunteerism and social maturity.
Many schools AUC included offer merit-based scholarships that take your MCAT score into account along with your other qualifications.
