<p>Hello Everyone,</p>
<p>I had a question regarding GPA conversion. I am an international student, applying to the US, and I was wondering if anyone would know a good site to use to convert from Percentage to GPA, or if a chart of any sort. </p>
<p>Thanks for your help,</p>

<p>Normally, you don't need to convert a percentage scale to a 4.0 scale, because most colleges accept both (many American high schools send grades on a 100 point scale... mine did).</p>
<p>Anyway, this is how it usually breaks down in terms of letter grades and 4.0 scale:
A (94-100): 4.0
A- (90-93): 3.7
B+ (87-89): 3.3
B (83-86): 3.0
B- (80-82): 2.7
C+ (77-79): 2.3
C (73-76): 2.0
C- (70-72): 1.7</p>
<p>I'm going to assume you don't need to know any lower than that... anyway that's how it usually breaks down, give or take a few hundredths of GPA points.</p>
<p>If you need an exact formula, the way it usually works is ((Credits class A is worth x Grade points received for class A)+(Credits class B is worth x Grade points received for class B)+...)/(total credits).</p>
<p>I do IB in my school do they factor this in anyway??</p>
<p>And an A, in my school is 86+, B is 73+</p>
<p>so would a 92 mean a 3.75? cause the collegeboard information for gpa is based off of whether someone has 3.75 or below it. it's quite annoying actually since i can't find exactly what a 3.75 translates to </p>
<p>airboard- they definately take Ib classes into consideration. Some schools have their own weighting system for it and others see that you take harder courses and just factor that in to their decision.</p>
<p>95+ - 4.0
94 - 3.9
93 - 3.8
92 - 3.7
91 - 3.6
90 - 3.5</p>
<p>that's how my school does it</p>
<p>95+ = 4
94= 3.9
93 = 3.8
92 = 3.7
91, 90 = 3.6
89-87 = 3.3
etc</p>
