The correlation between absolute grades and letter grades and their numeric grade equivalents are given in Table 1. Table 1: The correlation between absolute grades and letter grades and their numeric grade equivalents     Absolute Grade Letter Grade Numeric Grade Meaning 90 - 100 AA 4,0 Perfect 80 - 89 BA 3,5 Very Good 73 - 79 BB 3,0 Good 66 - 72 CB 2,5 Average 60 - 65 CC 2,0 Sufficient 55 - 59 DC 1,5 Pass 50-54 DD 1,0 Pass 36- 49 FD 0,5 Fail 0 - 35 FF 0,0 Fail due to absence - DZ 0,0 Fail due to absence - BI - Successful - BZ - Unsuccessful - M - Exempted  -  W  - Withdrawal  -   E  - Incomplete Grade
