Converting gcses/a levels into gpa?

<p>When applying for American colleges or even just searching they often ask you to enter your gpa?
Wondering how that is possible? Especially since gcse and a level are two different courses so do they have the same value when calculatin gpa?
Extremely confused </p>

<p>You can’t really - and they know that. Afik, they expect 5 GSCEs and at least 3 AS to apply- provide those marks. </p>

<p>I agree. You don’t need to do any conversion. US colleges don’t expect foreign applicants to have a GPA. They will do their own conversion if they need it.</p>
