Sadly, no. Conversion rate is best for 1 month and gets progressively worse with longer conversion periods.

1 month core is 20 days of Ultimate --- 3/2 ratio
6 months (180 days roughly) of core is 81 days / 2+ months of ultimate --- 3/1.5 ratio
12 month of core is 4 months of ultimate --- 3/1 ratio

Full conversion table from https://support.xbox.com/en-US/he...imate-faq:
1 month of Game Pass Core = 20 days of Ultimate
3 months of Game Pass Core = 50 days of Ultimate (1+ month)
6 months of Game Pass Core = 81 days of Ultimate (2+ months)
12 months of Game Pass Core = 4 months of Ultimate
24 months of Game Pass Core = 6 months of Ultimate
1 month of Gold = 20 days of Ultimate
3 months of Gold = 50 days of Ultimate (1+ month)
6 months of Gold = 81 days of Ultimate (2+ months)
12 months of Gold = 4 months of Ultimate
24 months of Gold = 6 months of Ultimate
1 month of Xbox Game Pass for Console = 22 days of Ultimate
3 months of Xbox Game Pass for Console = 68 days of Ultimate (2+ months)
6 months of Xbox Game Pass for Console = 135 days of Ultimate (4+ months)
12 months of Xbox Game Pass for Console = 9 months of Ultimate
24 months of Xbox Game Pass for Console = 18 months of Ultimate
1 month of PC Game Pass = 20 days of Ultimate
3 months of PC Game Pass = 60 days of Ultimate (1+ month)
1 month of EA Play = 10 days of Ultimate
6 months of EA Play = 40 days of Ultimate
12 months of EA Play = 2 months of Ultimate
Might want to check that math again.

Auto converts to 4 months of Ultimate. So saves about $4 per month.

Really nice deal for anyone with an expired sub. I picked up 2 years at Target some months back at $45/per which I'm wanting to say converted to a year and a half of Ultimate. I don't have my Xbox in front of me to check but I do remember the conversion rate was quite generous.

Do you know if you can "pause" game pass and resume it later? For example, I use game pass ultimate for a month, then want to pause it for a month or two, then use the remaining few months. Or do the 4 months need to be uninterrupted?

Brave, I never would've been able to do that myself

EDIT: I did it! I also searched the web and found out!

Shouldn't it convert to 8 months? I thought it was a 3:2 ratio.

No, there is no way to pause your game pass sub.

Sub expires in about a month, think these can used after it expires to do the conversion?. Waiting for deals and just upped with a one month code, non-stackable. Slick dealers warn to use them asap after buying. Anyone having experience? Newegg's pretty legit.
