For undergraduate schools that don't have an 'A+' grade (schools where 'A' is the highest grade and it's a 4.0), LSAC will count an 'A' as a 4.0, A- as 3.67, B+ as 3.33, etc... right? I'm fairly certain that this is correct, just wanted to confirm with the more knowledgeable folk here.

Correct, while an A+ is always calculated as a 4.33.

As has been said, this is the case. Its unfortunate too. I know my first UG didn't have A+'s but surely had A-'s. It was clownery.
