What does the ECTS grading scale represent?
The admission threshold used in the distribution-based grading scale is the threshold above which a student is admitted. This threshold is the same as the one used for awarding ECTS credits for modules, grading services and the student's overall average.
| Level | Numerical equivalences* | Numerical equivalences by distribution* | Mentions* | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | 16/20 - 20/20 | 10% best | Excellent | Outstanding results with only a few minor shortcomings |
| B | 14/20 - 16/20 | 25% following | Very good | Above-average results despite a number of shortcomings |
| C | 12/20 - 14/20 | 30% following | Good | Generally good, despite a number of shortcomings |
| D | 10+/20 - 12/20 | 25% following | Satisfactory | An honest effort, but one with some shortcomings |
| E | 10/20 | 10% following | Fair | The results meet the minimum criteria |
| FX | 08/20 - 10-/20 | Insufficient | Additional work is required to obtain a credit | |
| F | < 08/20 | Unsatisfactory | A considerable amount of additional work is needed |
