According to the 59 medical school admissions officers our Kaplan team spoke with in 2024, 39% said a low MCAT score is “the biggest application deal-breaker” in the primary application, followed by a low GPA and then a lack of clinical experience.

In the table below, we list the average MCAT scores for some of the top medical schools across the U.S.

Achieving a 520+ on the MCAT is an exceptional accomplishment. A score in this range, which falls in the 97th percentile or higher, goes far beyond what is considered "competitive." It places you among the top applicants nationwide and opens up opportunities at the most elite medical schools in the country.
