I think that a gpa tag would itself be a little too localised. The fact is, if we had country tags, we could still tag as both usa and canada, plus people from other countries which use an American style education system could add their own countries tags, even if the original poster didn't realise that madeupistan used a similar grading system.

I'm in Canada and I have a GPA. I think a tag like gpa would be much more representative than usa, canada, india, etc.
