I was just curious how much does a GPA here actually help (for med school) compared to “average” schools? does like a 3.8 at XXX State University = a 3.5 here?

For example, Dartmouth Med says it’s “average combined entering MCAT score is approximately 34, and the average undergraduate GPA is 3.8.” However, 3.8 GPA would be pulled up by students from “average undergrads” whereas it would also be pulled down by “harder undergraduate schools”.
