Press Release

Austin, TX – October 2, 2025

Premed Catalyst is raising the bar for premed resources with the launch of two brutally honest and completely free tools: the Med School GPA Calculator and the Med School Chance Predictor.

These aren’t your average calculators. They’re built on the same logic former AdComs use to help Premed Catalyst’s advising students earn acceptances to top programs like UCLA, UCSF, Vanderbilt, Icahn School of Medicine at Mt. Sinai, and Boston University.

The Med School GPA Calculator breaks your transcript down the way AdComs do by separating overall and science (BCPM) GPA. You’ll get live updates as you enter courses so you can get a clear picture of whether your grades are helping or hurting your med school chances.

The Med School Chance Predictor goes beyond GPA and MCAT to analyze your entire profile, including clinical experience, research, leadership, and letters of recommendation. It shows you how your stats stack up against accepted applicants across the country and what you need to do to improve your chances.

“These tools give premeds a reality check,” said Mike, co-founder of Premed Catalyst and a current anesthesiology resident. “They don’t just crunch numbers. They help applicants understand where they stand and what they need to fix if they’re going to be competitive.”

And unlike most tools online, these are 100% free, with no email required, no logins, and no paywalls.
