Inter-university percentage comparison
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.
| Percent | 70 | 71 | 72 | 73 | 74 | 75 | 76 | 77 | 78 | 79 | 80 | 81 | 82 | 83 | 84 | 85 | 86 | 87 | 88 | 89 | 90 | 91 | 92 | 93 | >94 |
