4. Even a perfect MCAT score will not compensate for a below par undergrad GPA.

Well, there’s some compensation. For example if (assuming OP is white) OP scores in the med student average range (30-32 or 85th-90th percentile), his GPA puts his acceptance rate into a medical school (forget about Harvard) at 34.7%. If he can get into the 39+ range (top 1% of MCAT test takers, a stronger pool that SAT takers), then he’ll have a 54.1% chance. https://www.aamc.org/data/facts/applicantmatriculant/157998/mcat-gpa-grid-by-selected-race-ethnicity.html
