How the Australia system works
Australian universities assess overseas qualifications directly, guided by the Country Education Profiles; there is no single national GPA, so most use a 7-point scale or a Weighted Average Mark (WAM).
Is it competitive?
Most Australia master's programmes look for the equivalent of a US 3.0+ (an upper-second / good average), with competitive and funded programmes wanting more. Convert first, then check each programme's stated minimum. For a credit-weighted multi-course result, use the WES iGPA calculator.

It depends on the programme, but a strong upper-tier %s result (roughly a US 3.0+ equivalent) is competitive for most master's programmes; selective and funded programmes expect more.
