mongodb find by comparing field values

Question

Is it possible to express the following SQL query in mongodb:

SELECT * FROM table AS t WHERE t.field1 > t.filed2;

You can use a $where. Just be aware it will be fairly slow (has to execute Javascript code on every record) so combine with indexed queries if you can.

db.T.find( { $where: function() { return this.Grade1 > this.Grade2 } } );

or more compact:

db.T.find( { $where : "this.Grade1 > this.Grade2" } );
