: Yes, make sure that it's clear somewhere that this is on a scale from 1-10, but don't try and convert, there are whole commissions that do that and it's not the translator's place.

Yes. The grading system is probably at the bottom of the original document. The target US university or evaluation agency will convert it. Thank you, S. Kathryn. See also my link in the discussion box.
