How to fill in the formula
Enter the name of each course in which you have received a grade but

Also leave out grades that are not numbers but letters - A, B, C etc.
Instead you should enclose an official description of your university's
grading system together with your diploma.

60 method used to calculate the estimated time spent on coursework.
127.5
50 If all courses are weighted the same, i.e., are each worth the same

You must enter the highest grade in your university's grading system,
even if you have not received this grade for any of the courses you are listing.
It is very important that you enter the lowest passing grade in your
university's grading system, - not the lowest grade you have received.
