I am an international student from India. My details are as follows-
1.B.Com (Accountancy Honours) from University of Calcutta (Year 2005)
Grade - 57% (Second class honours)
2.Professional Education II Course from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (November 2006). Grade - 50.6%
Revised GRE - Verbal 150/170, Quantitative - 154/170, Total - 304/340. AWA-3.5
Another thing I like to mention is that the grading or the evaluation pattern of University of Calcutta is different from the rest of Universities in India, because the average score ranges from 50-52% and it is unlike the rest of the universities whose averages are about 65-70%.
Now how would the Universities would compare the scores when there are differences in grading pattern.Moreover,the year of graduation should also need to be taken into consideration by taking into the fact about the escalation of scores in recent years.
So, I am mainly concerned about conversion of GPA and if I need to evaluate my degree then which evaluator should I prefer, WES or ECE or any other you may suggest.
Also, I have attempted few times in the Final examination of ICAI, do I need to send the transcripts of those exams even though I did not complete.
Another important thing is that the grading pattern of ICAI regarding Professional Education II or the Final exams are much different since it is a professional accounting course leading to a professional qualification.Now, how would the Universities as well as any evaluator such as WES would take the grading pattern into context, because 50% here is not equivalent to a 50% in a coursework, the reason being scoring here is much tougher compared to any coursework exams.
Kindly, give your opinion about the above complex aspects.
Moreover, what are the chances of getting assistantships in an average university.
