Thank you! I believe they do but I’m not sure exactly how. I think their exact formula for calculating GPA is internal.

They do your L2 or CGPA. Whatever is higher. You can use whatsmygpa.ca, find Dalhousie. Enter your grades as they would be on your home uni scale. For instance if your school uses % then use the % scale and so on. Then it will automatically convert it to a 4.3 scale. Make sure that you test your L2 and your CGPA to see which way is  higher.

I know for certain they factor in Masters GPA but they don’t say how.

Accepted via email this morning, my online portal has never stated 'under review' and application was complete in early December for those of you who might be worried because it doesn't seem to be changing. 

cGPA 3.83 (OLSAS)

L2/B2 3.98/4

LSAT 161 (only write)

No Maritimes connection.
