U of T's grading scale according to OMSAS OMSAS - Undergraduate Grading System Conversion Table - Ontario Universities' Application Centre best matches the grading scale in AAMCAS for the third row under Canadian grading. For example, a B- is a 70-72 at U of T which only matches to that row, also where an A- starts at 80, etc.
