For international applicants, how it works the GPA part? (The grade system is 0 to 1 in my University for example)
And been the first generation in college, ECs, WE... this things are relevant in which part of the application? For M7 I would "compete" with people that have similar characteristics as me?

FYI
Graduated in Mechanical Engineering in top 3 Latin America University
"GPA" 0.7 (0 to 1)
First generation in college
Didn't take the gmat yet but the plan is in 1 to 2 years

Don't try to convert to the 4.0 scale. Adcoms know how to evaluate undergrad performance from other countries that are on different scales.

Thanks! It's good to know that.
I saw a lot of folks with GPA like 3.8 to 4.0, that's very high when compare to what I was used to in University.
