I am a student from IIT (India). Our grading system is on a scale of 10. According to Baruch's recommended converstion method A=4, B=3.. so C=2 and D=1, while if I convert using ratios our B=3.2, C=2.4 and D=1.6 (its a lot of difference!).. another issue: am I expected to convert each individual grades and then find out the converted cumulative GPA?
How to convert GPA?

There is no formula to convert the marks into GPA either. An official statement is provided by the university that we do not provide gpa's
I have 69% aggregate out of hundred

I don't think the universities in US will take your word on the conversion from your scale to GPA. You don't need to do anything if your university is known here.
What is a safe litmus test to ascertain if a given university is recognized in the US or not? I'd assume that the presence of the university name in the drop down menu while selecting a college in the online application process is a reasonable indicator?

You can get an evaluation by WES to give your degree and course equivalency for US schools. http://www.wes.org I had to do it to get my transfer credits from my Canadian school, rather than rely on the US School to do it.

WES might be helpful
