OMSAS Conversion

[K_D35]

I go to University of Toronto and just finished year 4. I was wondering how to calculate my OMSAS gpa. Since we get both percentage and letter grade on the transcript, do I only use the percentage.

I converted my year 4 marks to the OMSAS GPA using column 3 on the conversion chart.

87 --> 3.9
88 --> 3.9
80 --> 3.7
84 --> 3.7
94 --> 4
93 --> 4
77 --> 3.3
77 --> 3.3
92 --> 4
92 --> 4

So I take the average of the individual OMSAS gpa for each course. 37.8/10 = 3.78
So my OMSAS gpa for year 4 would be 3.78.

Is this the correct way to calculate?

Yes, I believe you have done it correctly

EDIT: to my understanding, if you are converting to just GPA, using the letter grade and the percent should yield the same result

dont you just use your letter grades for U of T dent? Im confused as to why u would need to convert your grades when u already have letter grades? A+=4.0 A=3.9 etc.
