This was posted in another thread. It lists the undergraduate GPA and LSAT scores for students who did their undergraduate work at each university. These are not the averages for students admitted to the universities’ law schools.
McGill’s GPA and LSAT (3.43 and 163) are in line with comparable US schools: Tufts, Michigan, UCLA, Berkeley, Cornell etc. This is an argument against the notion that McGill has major grade deflation, just a lack of grade inflation

Thank you for the link! That is a great piece of data with a lot of good information!!!
After analyzing the data a little, there is indication there that McGill’s grades are a little lower, though, not much lower.
For example, let us suppose that people with a particular LSAT score would/should average the same GPA. Then one can look the following scatter plot of (average LSAT) vs (average GPA). Here, it looks like McGill’s GPA is about 0.13 points below the regression line. So, one would conclude, at least for comparable students applying to ABA law schools, that McGill’s GPA is about that much lower than average.

(Sorry for the address mangling, but this comment is not posting with the direct link.)
McGill’s dot is circled in red.
Some have definitely stronger differences. E.g., Princeton, the dot to the right, is about 0.2 points lower than the regression line. University of Toronto, the dot at (157.28,3.14) is 0.27 points below the regression line.
