Each section is scored on a 1-15 scale, with the average somewhere around 8.0. The mean varies slightly by section and test date. Writing Sample scores are on a different scale: J-T.
For those who actually apply to med school, the average MCAT score is higher (8.7 Verbal Reasoning, 9.0 Physical Sciences, 9.3 Biological Sciences). And for those who are accepted and then matriculate at med school, the averages are 9.5 for Verbal Reasoning, 10.0 for Physical Sciences, and 10.2 for Biological Sciences. Bear in mind that many candidates are accepted with scores both above and below these average figures
So it sounds like you’re pretty much set on those scores – it sounds very impressive, good job! I wouldn’t know what the GPA would do, though I imagine a letter explaining the problem would help. 🙂 Good luck.
