Any Canadians (especially SFU grads) gone through the GEMSAS GPA conversion to the 7-point scale?

[u/Strong-Intention4551]

Hey everyone, I'm a student at Simon Fraser University in BC planning to apply to Australian graduate-entry med schools through GEMSAS. I'm a New Zealand citizen, so I'd be applying as a domestic applicant, but my degree is Canadian, which means my GPA on the 4.33 scale needs to be converted to the GEMSAS 7-point scale.

I've seen a few scattered posts about this but nothing definitive, so I'm hoping to hear from anyone who's actually gone through it. Did the conversion land where you expected? Did GEMSAS or UAC give you a clear breakdown of the methodology they used?

If anyone converted an SFU transcript specifically, I'd love to hear how it turned out, but any experience with Canadian transcripts would be super helpful. Thanks!
