<p>i don’t know exactly of course… i hear alot of ‘unweighted and weighted’ but i am not exactly sure of what that is.
I was under the impression that the rough conversion was this:</p>
<p>A = 8,9,10
B = 7
C = 6
D = 5
F = 4 and below</p>
<p>I have never been at an american school so i cannot verify this exactly, and many other things have to be taken into consideration but this is pretty close.</p>
<p>A 7.6 according to this would be like a A- or a big B+ i guess. If someone does know the actual conversion is please post.</p>
<p>I strongly disagree with Nauru that i ‘have no future except for being an elementary school teacher’, if you in fact meant that. Havo is no wonderland but it is certainly enough to get you places, one year earlier infact. VWO and Gymnasium are very rigorous and almost guarantee you a good future if you use your diploma wisely. I can’t keep looking back and wondering if I could have kept on doing Gymnasium if I had made a better impression because that would just be silly.
Also just a small comment, i think a Gymnasium education + exp. at a Dutch University would give you a FAR greater edge than a normal American student at U of Arizona. So that might explain the 100%'s. I wish i got 10’s for doing my homework. lol</p>
<p>I plan to go to college in the US after my HAVO.</p>
<p>By the way which university do you go to in Holland ? VU ? UVA ?
Also, what was garbage ?
Cheers</p>
