“Each applicant needs to be as sure as possible that this is what they want to do with their life. That motivation can be demonstrated through academic achievement and also through exposure to clinical medicine and community service. MCAT scores do not guarantee that an applicant will be invited to interview. Just as important are extracurricular activities and life experiences.”
