510 and above is where you start becoming competitive for most med schools, but if you're targeting top programs like Harvard or Johns Hopkins you really want to be pushing 515 or higher, it's a tough exam so anything in that range is genuinely impressive.

"Hey there, I'm a pre-med student myself. Generally, the average MCAT score for matriculants at top medical schools is around 510-518. However, this can vary widely depending on the school. If you're looking to get into a top-tier program, aim for 520+ or higher. But it's also about finding a school that's a good fit for you!"
