'''Examples of how to read this table:'''
 +
* You need 75% to get a 3.3 at McGill, but the University of Toronto requires a 77% to get the same 3.3.
 +
* A mark of B+ covers the same range of percentages at York and McGill. At York, it is worth 7 points out of 9; at McGill, it is worth 3.3 points out of 4.0.
 +
* A mark of 80-84% is an A- at many universities, whereas at York, it is an A. This is because the A- does not exist.

The '''[http://www.ouac.on.ca/omsas/pdf/c_omsas_b.pdf OMSAS Grade Point Average scale]''' is identical to that of McGill. However, the document that is provided by OMSAS is slightly flawed in that McGill has no C- or D- value.
