The Adcom members aren't deciding who to invite...the Admissions dean does that. Did you speak to a Dean? or a faculty member?
And your chances are NOT 40%...it's not a random process, and you can't base your stats on the nationwide avg since you're not going to be applying to HBCs, or state specific schools like U AL or U OK, or U NM. You have to look at the odds for each individual school, and your GPAs are in the <10th %ile range for nearly every MD school in the US.

My chances as people had said is around 40%. For this process that's not bad considering that's right at the national average. I have said about 5 times through these pages that I have talked to adcom members at schools as well as students and my pre med adviser who said I have a chance this cycle. I'm a disadvantaged applicant which isn't the same as URM but I know it carries some weight. And the slim chance I don't get in after applying to 40 schools, I have a back up plan for the gap year before I would reapply.
