So I graduated with an upper second class honours in a British degree and my CAS evaluation came back as "Above Average" - I'm not sure how to translate that into GPA on my profile, and I think it's better not to try since it's simply different. With the searching through other people options on 7sage, I think it would be useful if other users with a non-American degree could share their equivelant for the GPA!

Hello! I know this is a slightly older post, but I'm writing this anyway in case it helps!
I don't have a non-American degree, but I think there's no specific guideline released publicly on how the LSAC labels international degrees. Generally speaking, the grade from non-American institutions is converted by LSAC into a qualitative tier like Superior, Above Average, Average, or Below Average. And I believe they don't count into the school's median; the qualitative labels are provided to schools just as a reference.
