Ask Stacy Blackman

Hi Stacy,

2 questions, one specific and another general:

1)how do I convert my BA grade (86, from Heberw U in Jerusalem Israel) into GPA?

from online resources I covered there are diff' ways of doing so - for example: in Duke they consider my grade as an A (3.8 GPA) ,while in a general conversion table it is considered as 3.1 GPA.
the difference between a GPA of 3.1 and 3.8 is the diff' between being accepted and not.

2)my GMAT score is 690 (91%) Q 48 V 36, I am an Israeli airforce pilot (finished flight academy with exellence), I served in two command positions in operational squadrons. when applying I will be 34 years old.
I aim at a top 20 MBA program

what are my chances as an applicant, given the above data and my older than average age?

thanks

cheers

Ron
