Hello!
Honestly, I'm a bit confused about applying to Master's degree in Management (University of Manitoba, Asper School of business), so i'm looking for advise.
I graduated from Czech University of Life Science in Prague this year. My major was Economic and Management (Program taught in English). GPA is 1.7 out of 4. Thesis "Statistical analysis of economic indicators of farm economy", defended(grade 1 - excellent). As far as I know, most universities of Canada require GPA of last two year of study and U of M is not the exception. So my GPA of last two years of study is 1.5 out of 4. Converting it two canadian system, it will be 3.5/4, right? Or am I wrong?
Also I'm currently preparing for iELTS, which will be taken in the end of August and GMAT(planning to pass it in december). I'm confident in my abilities to pass ielts successfully, so i'm not worrying about this a lot. Also I took mock gmat recently, where I scored 650(planning to score 680+).
In case, I will be successful in both exams, what are my chances to be accepted? Btw, i'm in good relationship with professors, so I will have good recommendation letters.
I would like to apologize for dumb question, but i'm just not sure whether should I apply or not because in my opinion I have really low GPA. The world is so competitive nowadays..
Thank you in advance for your answers!

Hey there,
Firstly, please confirm about your GPA. Is 1 being the highest or 4 being the highest? If 1 is the highest, GPA is the last thing you need to worry about, you can even apply for better schools. But if it is to the lower side than literally Canadian schools are not an option.
Other than that you have a decent profile and being a Czech there is good diversity in your profile as well. 650 is pretty average for many Canadian schools, so you need to aim for at-least 680-700. You also need to take care of your extra-curricular activities and internships, as they also play a major role here. So, getting more work experience should be the priority here. You can get a detailed evaluation of your profile done -

Hi! Thank you for reply! I appreciate it. Yes, you are right, 1 is highest grade in the Czech Republic, however I'm actually not czech but russian (I moved to Prague after secondary school finished in Russia and then I graduated here from the Czech university). Hope it wouldn't be a problem when applying to the canadian university 
Also, since I speak czech but not fluently it was not that easy to take part in extra-curricular activites, since most of conferences related to my major were spoken in czech, however I've had good experience as a sales manager in my country and also I participated in one business project. If I may ask you, what can you advise me how compensate those extra-curricular activites?
Thank you.
