How Bangladesh grades convert to US GPA
Bangladesh school boards use a 5.0 GPA (SSC/HSC); universities typically use a 4.0 CGPA already close to the US scale. A 5.0-scale figure must be rescaled.
Grade equivalents at a glance
| Bangladesh grade | US GPA (est.) | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 4.0 (A+) on 5.0 | ~4.0 | Excellent (school) |
| 3.5–3.9 university CGPA | ~3.5–3.9 | Very good |
| 3.0–3.49 university CGPA | ~3.0–3.49 | Good |
| 2.5–2.99 university CGPA | ~2.5–2.99 | Pass with merit |
| 2.0–2.49 university CGPA | ~2.0–2.49 | Pass |
Is this competitive for US admission?
A university CGPA of 3.0+ on the 4.0 scale meets most US programme floors directly, since the scales align. School (HSC) GPA on the 5.0 scale must be rescaled before comparing. Confirm each programme.
Credential evaluation (WES / ECE)
WES converts the 4.0 university CGPA with little adjustment and rescales the 5.0 school GPA. Transcripts must come from the institution / board.
For the credit-weighted multi-course version, see the WES iGPA calculator. Indian students wanting a percentage instead can use the CGPA to percentage tool.
