D. was accepted to couple top 20s’, she was NOT invited to interviews at U of Mich / Chicago, waitlisted at Pitt. U of Mich actually completely ignored her application, did not hear from them at all, while Chicago sent rejection few hours after recieving her application fee. She had 3.98 / 35 with great number of long-lasting (over span of several years) Med. EC’s and other EC’s in area of personal interests, great leadership positions. You can drow your conclusions from her adn other people’s experiences.
For MCAT estimation, on average, real MCAT is 2 points below the best practice MCAT score and within 2 points of ACT. There are exceptions, but it was true for my D’s MCAT score.
