The effect of a summer MCAT performance improvement program on minority medical student acceptance.

M A Medina.   

Abstract

The effect of a commercial Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) review course on MCAT retake scores and acceptance into medical school for a group of minority students is reported. The review course enhanced MCAT performance in all of the subgroups. The increase in total MCAT score was more pronounced in students with an initial MCAT score below 36 or a high undergraduate total or science grade point average. Results suggest a relationship between MCAT performance and medical school admission.
