I have scoured the forums and called AMCAS/my school's registrar and have yet to find an answer to this question. For anyone who has filled out an AMCAS with grades from Oakland University, how were your grades converted? For example, how did AMCAS interpret something like a 3.8 or 3.6 grade in a class?
For those of you who didn't go to Oakland University, the school utilizes a 32 point numerical grading system with passing grades from 1.0-4.0. Individual grades in classes would be numerical. For example, you could get something like a 3.8 or a 2.4 in a class. The university senate has published a conversion for external purposes that converts any grade from a 3.6-4.0 an A, 3.5-3.0 a B, etc. but the conversion isn't anywhere on the official transcript.
Someone please help so that I can estimate my AMCAS GPA with some sort of accurary! Thank you!
