Thank you</p>
<p>I’m also an IB student, so I won’t have any answers or critique in regard to your chances of admission. However, I’d like to ask a couple questions:</p>
<p>1) Are you taking the full IB diploma? If yes, does your school convert the IB scale to GPA? If yes, how do they do that?</p>
<p>2) What is your predicted grade and how are you doing at the moment?</p>
<p>Hey eklee!</p>
<p>1) Yes I am, our school weights each IB course by 2/3 of a letter grade, so for example a B+ is counted as an A for the GPA, which is why my weighted GPA is above 4.0.</p>
<p>2) We receive our official predicted grades when we return to school in late August, but I talked to my counsellor and they said that unofficially, I’m at around a 42-43. I’m doing quite well, feel in control of the EE and ToK, and not too worried about most of my classes.</p>
<p>Hope that was helpful :)</p>
