Will a 33 mcat score and 3.75 get you into good med school?

A 33 MCAT score and a 3.75 GPA are very strong applications components. They significantly increase your chances of getting into many good medical schools, and even some of the most competitive ones.

However, "good" is subjective. It depends on your definition. These scores alone don't guarantee admission to *any* specific school, even prestigious ones. Admissions committees look at the *entire* application, including:

* Research experience: Quality and quantity of research, publications, presentations.

* Clinical experience: Shadowing, volunteering, paid clinical work, exposure to diverse patient populations.

* Extracurricular activities: Demonstrating leadership, teamwork, commitment, and other skills relevant to medicine.

* Personal statement: A compelling narrative showcasing your personality, motivation, and fit for the medical profession.

* Letters of recommendation: Strong, detailed letters from professors, physicians, and mentors who can attest to your abilities and character.

* School choice: Applying to schools that match your profile (some schools are more statistically likely to accept applicants with your profile)

In short, while a 33 MCAT and 3.75 GPA put you in a very competitive position, a holistic and well-rounded application is crucial for admission to a "good" medical school (however you define it).
