<p>My educational organization uses the following letter grade conversions from percents:</p>
<p>80 100: A
65 79: B
50 64: C
0 49: F</p>
<p>Does this mean I have a 4.0 GPA? Or am I still subject to the same conversions as others when applying to colleges?</p>
<p>Well-- are your percent grades listed on your transcript? Does your school rank?
If percent grades are listed without rank, your grades will probably be converted. If rank is given-- the actually GPA doesn’t matter that much. </p>
<p>It is important that you are taking very difficult classes, and if your school doesn’t rank and/or given percentages then your recommendations and SAT are given more weight.</p>
<p>So no-- it won’t really give you an advantage.</p>
