British universities usually do not understand the GPA/GPR in the United States. Their highest score Settings and the reverse order of the scores are quite different from ours. So it is best to clearly note on the resume that 4.0 is the highest. This is especially important if your GPA is high and you don't want to be ignored. In addition, British schools are very strict in grading grades. In the United States, 80% is considered just okay, but in the UK, 80% indicates that a student is excellent. Here are the usual two sets of grade conversion tables. If you need: A+ : 90% A: 87% A- : 81% B+ : 74% B: 67% B- : 61% C+ : 54% C: 47% C- : 41% D+ : 35% D: 30% D- : 24% Another set: 80+ A+ 72-79 A 68-72 A- 65-68 B+ 62-65 B 58-62 B- 55-58 C+ 52-55 C 48-53 C- 45-48 D+ 42-45 D 40-42 D- Less than 40 is a failing grade #StudyAbroad #StudyAbroadUK #UKUniversityAdvice #CollegePrep #UniversityTips
