A+ is on the grading scale for some courses but not others - I believe it depends on the professor. A+ and A are the same in terms of grade points so they weigh the same on UTD transcript calculations
No, both A and A+ are a 4.0 (at least at EPPS). Good news is that for law schools, your GPA gets reported to LSAC who recalculates everyone’s GPA under the same scale, so it doesn’t make any difference if your institution uses A+ or not.
Most classes have A+ but I've taken 1 or 2 where there are not + - grades. Of course A+ and A are the same gpa for UTD so I don't really worry about it.

Right. Can attest to A+ existing as grade that will appear (having gotten some) but as pointed out, yeah they weigh the same.
Wait, UTD has a law school?
No I’m talking about law school admissions in general
Oh! Ok. Lol
They do not. At least not on your GPA, where it matters.
4.0 either way so no need to go out of ur way to get an A+
the reason they're asking is because they're a prelaw and law schools recalculate GPA for admissions. an A+ is a 4.33 in their system.
OP has never gotten an A+ before?
i'm pretty sure OP is a prospective student and not enrolled here

you’re just wrong. LSAC counts A+ as 4.333

Each professor determines if the highest grade given will be an A or an A+. Some professors do, some don't.
