Calculating GPA & freaked out

So, I plugged in all my grades from my three years of undergrad (going into my last year) into the calculator on lawapplicants.ca and I'm confused. I had one course during the Winter 2020 semester (onset of the pandemic) that I used the Credit/No Credit option with, but how would I calculate this using the calculator on lawapplicants.ca? I omitted it completely but I'm scared my Last Two/Best Three isn't really reflective of my actual grades. 

Help?

If it was just the one course it shouldn't have too much of an effect on things. Though depending on the school it might mean they draw another semester into their calculation of your L2. 

Unfortunately at that point it becomes a bit hard for us to tabulate. For now I'd take the stats the calculator gave you as kosher and mentally note the caveat that there could be some changes on the school's end.

Thanks! Wishing I did better in first year...

As far as I understand, CR/NCR classes just don't count at all. They're completely ignored in your GPA calculation. So omitting it would be the right move. As usual, L2/B3 calculations on the site are merely approximations. That said, one class will likely not make a substantial impact on any of those stats.
