I would not worry about getting low GPA at Chicago.

I have spoken to many med school admission officers and they do know about the grade deflation at Chicago. In fact, I have even heard some “unofficial” comments that they add 0.2 to normalize Chicago students.

The same comment applies to those who apply to law schools and b-schools.

I heard that as long as you get anything above 3.4 and do well in MCAT, you are fine.
