Official Transcript Guidelines
- Always verify whether your target institution requests WES (World Education Services) credential evaluation or direct linear conversion.
- For CBSE students, never multiply by 10; official marksheets mandate the 9.5 multiplier.
- Check the reverse side of your official university grade sheet for institute-specific conversion formulas.
