GPA Boost?

Post by joon » Mon Jun 29, 2015 3:18 pm

Hi, I'm a rising senior in UG with a 3.77 atm. I read an atl article mentioning that my LSAC takes into account A+ as 4.33. My school doesn't have a distinction between A or A+, but I do get A+'s on my transcript. Does that mean my LSAC GPA will be higher atm? If so, would I be able to accurately get my current LSAC GPA by calculating all A+'s as 4.33 instead of 4.00?

lol, I calculated and it went up .01. Btw, if my major completion credit amount is 120, and I decide to add 2 easy classes my senior year to boost my GPA to have a total of 126 when I graduate, will LSAC calculate based off 126?

I would have had a 4.0+ if my school did this.
