Several of my classmates did it, at least for the didactic years. Clinical years are kind of hit or miss because grading is fairly subjective.
Also, most med schools these days are pass/fail, so it may not reflect traditional A/B/C/D/F grades, or an actual grade point. Most of those schools still internally rank their students. For us, the 13 or so students tied for top of the class (rank 1) have gotten >90% on all of our classes. It's doable. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." http://steamcommunity.com/id/Soviet_Poland/wishlist ... Copied to Clipboard!

Internships do? Err, no. Arguably board scores (USMLE Step 1 or COMLEX Level 1) are most important, followed by clinical year grades (usually a split between preceptor evaluations and a standardized "shelf" exam for that month's specialty). Then come didactic years (in terms of importance) where your "GPA" would have been established, but as I mentioned in my last post, most don't advertise an actual GPA since it's pass/fail. It's usually through either public or internal rankings of the class. It's kind of a hodgepodge where residencies see a dean's letter that will reference you as part of a certain quartile of your class. Generally being top half is sufficient and they wouldn't look much further into that. So yeah, lilORANG's friend is right. Pre-clinical grades don't really matter. --- "He has two neurons held together by a spirochete." http://steamcommunity.com/id/Soviet_Poland/wishlist ... Copied to Clipboard!

I had like a 3.7 but even then most medical schools dont use a letter grade or point system.
Most of it is not graded and goes by honors, high pass, pass, or fail. There is a hidden ranking system but its not supposed to be used as a metric of competency. Thats basically what step 1 and step 2 exams are for --- ... Copied to Clipboard!
