<p>Does the average admitted gpa for most med-school follow normal distributions? That if the average gpa for med-schools is about 3.5 then one can assume that for nearly every 4.00 admitted there is a 3.00 admitted.</p>
<p>No .</p>
<p>Would you think that there would be more from the low end of the gpa spectrum?</p>
<p>The national mean is 3.6. It is probably more accurate to say that for every 4.0 – and, bluntly, there’s not a lot of them because the premed curriculum is pretty brutal – there’s four 3.5’s.</p>

<p>I was just thinking that this could be attributed to the general trend of strict curves in the sciences.</p>
