GPA Calculation Question

<p>I am relatively knew to law school application prep, so I apologize if my question is rather basic. I went to an undergrad university (Penn) that gives out A+s, even though they are the same as As when it comes to the school GPA. Looking at the LSAC website, it appears that it recalculates your GPA so that A+ are weighted as 4.33, and not 4.00. I had a bunch of A+s (but never gave them much thought at the time) so my GPA goes up from a 3.91 to actually a 4.00 if I weigh my GPA this way. Is this really how law schools will view my GPA (the way LSAC recalculates it)? Even Penn Law, which is part of same university that gave me my original GPA? Also, how does the recalculation process work? You submit your grades and LSAC calculates GPA or law schools themselves are supposed to do this?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>The LSAC calculates your gpa and gives a transcript with your LSAC GPA. This is sent to law schools along with your college’s transcript. </p>
