A seven average coverts to 70%-73%. I'd like to think 73% but it depends on who is interpreting it.

If I have a 7.4 on McMaster's 12-Point scale...what is my grade at York? Is it a B or a C+?
(It doesn't seem that range is covered in the table).

You would have to convert every grade over to York's grade point system and then average it.

I don't understand....I have a 7.4 on the 12-Point Scale (or 2.8 on the standard 4-Point Scale). If I calculate it again...I would still reach the same conclusion.

If I convert them to letter grades...how would I average them? Also, what happens if I have McMaster Grades of 7...how would I convert that to York's grades?

Hope you can help.

.5 is equivalent to a 3 unit course, and 1.0 is equivalent to a 6 unit course

Edit: Don't forget that the letter grade you are inputting is YORK's GPA system. So make sure you convert everything over to York U's system before inputting your grades.

I've seen this calculator before.
Like I said...the problem is converting a McMaster Grade of 7 to York's Letter Grade. There's no equivalent.
