....the statement you quoted earlier suggests that they WILL NOT provide a like-for-like comparison on
grades achieved...but rather a like-for-like in academic level studied....i.e. A-level vs. IB vs. High-school diploma etc.... That is all you will need as BA are capable to work out what A, B, C, D or 90%, 80%, 70% means....
As a general guide, you could look at the UCAS (University entrance website) as the provide a table that compares the worlds academic standards....
LHA649: BA will recognise the IB, we can study it here in the UK as an alternative to A-levels....
I hope this helps guys....
