I'm aware that similar questions have been asked..but nobody seems to have a clear answer. My school uses a plus/minus system. If I have a B+ in a class, it as viewed as a 3.33 at my school. Will I receive the same GPA through AMCAS or is a B+ the same as a B, 3.0? Thanks in advance.

AMCAS does count +/- like if you have A- it will be 3.7

Thanks Electronegative,

Do you know what a B+ would be counted as. 3.3? 3.4?
