t. e. In the United States, academic grading commonly takes on the form of five, six or seven letter grades. Traditionally, the grades are A+, A, A−, B+, B, B−, C+, C, C−, D+, D, D− and F, with A+ being the highest and F being lowest. In some cases, grades can also be numerical. Numeric-to-letter-grade conversions generally vary from ...
Grade Description 70–100% A: Highest grade 60–69% B: Very strong pass 50–59% C: Pass and be accepted by universities 40-49% D: Borderline: the student has passed but will not be recognised by Universities, indicating they should resit that course 0–39% No Award: The student has failed the course
v. t. e. Grading in education is the application of standardized measurements to evaluate different levels of student achievement in a course. Grades can be expressed as letters (usually A to F), as a range (for example, 1 to 6), percentages, or as numbers out of a possible total (often out of 100). The exact system that is used varies worldwide.
A: Best possible grade, excellent (around 70–100%) B: Above average grade, very good (around 60–70%) C: Minimum pass, improvement needed (around 50–60%) D: Close fail (between 40% and 49%) N/A: Fail/No Pass (0–40%) National 4. The National 4 award is not graded and is only pass or fail. Each grade is further sub-divided into 'bands'.

Fail (N) Marginal Fail (MF) Fail (N) Fail (N) < 40. Fail 2 (F2) Fail (F) Note that the numbers above do not correspond to a percentile, but are notionally a percentage of the maximum raw marks available. Various tertiary institutions in Australia have policies on the allocations for each grade and scaling may occur to meet these policies.
In the Philippines, some universities follow a 4-Point Scale, which resembles or is equivalent to the U.S. grading system. This system uses a grade between 0.00 to 4.00 wherein 4.00 is the highest and 0.00 being a failing mark. Other universities follow a 5-Point Scale, wherein the highest grade is a 1.00 and the lowest is a 5.00 (failing mark).
The grade (US) or gradient (UK) (also called stepth, slope, incline, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line refers to the tangent of the angle of that surface to the horizontal. It is a special case of the slope, where zero indicates horizontality. A larger number indicates higher or steeper degree of "tilt".
