<p>I asked about this yesterday but I think it could be a wrong thread. I think this is much more suitable. </p>
<p>I am thinking of sending application to MIT, in my country we have grades from 1 to 6. But it is really hard to get 6 (to get it from maths you have to start in Olympiads and so on). Really good students in high school have GPA around 5.0, sometimes little more (like 5.1). I can see it’s much different than in US…</p>
<p>Does MIT counts that getting high average in some countries is much harder than in US, and it’s not really comparable?</p>
