A+,A, and A- are different?

Members don't see this ad.

In my school, A+ and A are 4.0 GPA and A- is 3.7 GPA.
Some teachers have different grading scale.
For example, some ppl say above 92 is A, some says above 90 is A, some says between 90~93 are A-.
There are some classes that don't even have A+ but there are some that do.

Anyway....does ADA or ADSSA or whoever that calculate our GPA, do they distinguish A+, A and A-?

Your transcript should have a grade conversion scale, I think that's what AADSAS will use to determine your mark.

If your transcript has +/- assigned to letter grades then yes, AADSAS will use that information to calculate your gpa (and AADSAS is interested in only your letter grades, not percentage, such as 92% vs. 95%). Their values for grades, such as an 'A' vs. an 'A-', can sometimes be slightly off than what your undergraduate institution uses to calculate your gpa. It is because of this reason that your gpa as calculated by AADSAS is higher or lower than what is on your transcript.
