How do I convert my French grade (15/20) to US gpa (out of 4.0)?
It is urgent.

I’d put your French grade and then put GPA equivalent in brackets.

Depending on where you’re working you’ll be selling yourself short if you just put a US GPA. 15/20 is much harder than most 3.8 GPAs 😂

This is what I do.

And if you know someone else from your school who did a year abroad in the US or something, might be worth checking with them. I used my university’s official calculation as a benchmark (someone got a 4/4 at a US school and that converted to 80% on their UK transcript).

Divide by 3, add 2 and then take the rest of the month off

There is no set rule on this. It depends on who’s asking and what guidelines they follow. Barring any details I’d encourage you to look for different reputable conversion systems by schools/institutions etc. and pick one that’s favorable to you (as long as you can back it up). The most common suggestion seems to be that it’s. 3.5-4.0.

Wouldn’t it be simple division? Divide yours by 5 to get the ratio out of 4?

Clearly I didn’t research

I applied for a position at a creative agency via LinkedIn. I'm not excited about agency work but job hunting hasn't been going well and I applied anyway. They reached out and would like to interview. But when I went to look over the job details again, I found their listing on ZipCruiter gives a pay range, which at their high end is $20k less than my minimum salary reqs. Should I still interview with them? If not, how can I politely reply and decline the interview?
