I was wondering if there is a way to compare these two grade systems. Currently I read a lot on this forum, and I always see you need an GPA of ... We in the Netherlands work with another kind of grade system, as you might know. Is there a way to compare these two, so you can say: a GPA of 3,5 is an average grade of 7,5 in the Netherlands for example?
Dutch grade system: 0 - 10 (cum laude if average is >8)
GPA 0 - 4

Oh you meant GPA?
It is probably easier to think about it in terms of class rank, combined with some sort of scoring for the difficulty of coursework/school. As for a direct comparison I don't know much about the Dutch grading system. Using a straight linear conversion doesn't seem to work if cum laude starts at 8 (that would be 3.2 in US system). Also have to consider grade inflation and how prevalent it is in the US vs. the Netherlands.
