<p>Sure it is. MIT’s posts their numbers for all to see. As arguably the top science-tech school in the world, why do MIT grads have to have a higher mean gpa for acceptance? If anything, logic would suggest that the the opposite would be true. But it is not. Moreover, since MIT is a national private and accepts students from all 50 states, most of its grads have less competitive a state med school to which to apply (ignoring hotbeds like California).</p>
<p>For example, the mean gpa of MIT’s grads a 3.73, but nationally it’s ~3.6. The mean accepted mcat is a 35 from MIT, while nationally, it is much lower.</p>
