The title seemed appropriate considering recent articles. However I am in the process of going the other direction, ie. Canada --> USA and need to put my GPA (GRADE POINT AVERAGE) on the "official" employment application even though I've already been accepted. How do you calculate a GPA? All my marks as an undergrad are letter grades making it even more difficult. All suggestions are welcomed, Paul Layman (playman@phonon.waterloo.edu)
