Can someone help me convert my ICSE and Grade XI percentage scores into Weighted GPA? Please keep in mind that the difficulty level of all school examinations are much higher than that of the Board’s. I have the toughest curriculum in school as I have science with mathematics and biology. So I would really appreciate anyone helping me with these.
As far as I have researched, you should NEVER convert percentages to the American GPA system.

That’s actually referring to people applying for a Master’s in the US, but I think it applies to us as well.
Most colleges have their own conversion system, so if you send them your transcripts with percentages/grades, they should convert it to GPA themselves. Hope I helped!
Well, “never” is a strong word. UC’s will ask you to convert, but they also have guidelines as to how to convert. However, for the vast majority of colleges, they do not ask to convert, so don’t; report with whatever scale is used on the transcript.
