GPA conversion

[husky1999]

Hey:

First time user here - have two general GPA questions.

1) When HYS lists the 25/50/75 stats, are they using the 4.33 or the 4.0 scale?

2) Does a 4.0/4.33 at a prestigious Canadian institution (i.e. UBC/McGill/Toronto) have same weight as 4.0/4.33 at a prestigious American institution?

Thank you so much in advance!

They are the same scale. Think of A+s like extra credit. Where you went to undergrad is irrelevant to admissions.
