Yes, but their website explicitly states the gpa/MCAT combo cutoffs. I see what you mean with the mission fit, but I am thinking of it in terms of the initial stat screening processRush isn't the best example of the sliding scale since the elephant in the room revolves around hours of experience, especially with community impact that is non clinical.
Mission fit.
They might say 500 cutoff on the website but that score is going to keep an applicant out at MD schools the vast majority of the time no matter what their GPA is.Yes, but their website explicitly states the gpa/MCAT combo cutoffs.

Until this past semester (I think), Rush also required 2 semesters of biochemistry. I have to look closer at what they consider GPA for screening and how they treat reinventors and career changers.Yes, but their website explicitly states the gpa/MCAT combo cutoffs.

I’m amazed that Rush would have any metrics that low. But I know that despite what is published someplace, their mission fit is very important.

you’re missing my point. Please read my reply to Goro above.The LizzyM score was created eons ago as a way for applicants to target their applications rather than bemoaning the fact that they had no interviews despite 30 applications when, in fact, they'd applied to the top 30 schools with a 3.1/508.
