French Grading System Conversion Uk
In the French grading system, there are a few different ways of converting your grades to the UK grading system. The most common way is by taking the value of your grade and then converting it into a number between 1-100. For example, if you got a 58 in French class, you would convert this into a 58/100 which would be equivalent to a B in the UK. The second way is by converting your grade into the percentage that would be equivalent to an A in the UK. This can be done by dividing your grade by 100, multiplying it by 5 and then adding 10-15% onto it. If you got an 81%, this would equate to an A+ in the UK system.

Introduction
You may not be too familiar with the French grading system, but it’s actually pretty easy to convert grades from French schools into their UK equivalents. Check out our handy table below for a quick reference on how to convert French grades.
Grade/Notation UK Equivalent
- Grade/Notation UK Equivalent
16-20 A* or A
14-15.99 B or A-
12-13.99 C or B-
10-11.99 D or C-
16-20 A* or A
In the French grading system, an A* is the highest grade you can receive. The second highest grade is an A, followed by a B+, B and so on down to E.
A* is worth 4 points on the French grading system, while A is worth 3 points. The table below shows how many points each grade represents in both systems:
14-15.99 B or A-
In the French grading system, B is the highest grade you can receive and 14-15.99 is the lowest. If your paper gets a grade between these two scores, then it will be translated to a B or A- respectively for your native language.
12-13.99 C or B-
The average student grades between 12 and 13.99 on the French grading system, or C+. A C+ is a borderline pass. It’s not good enough to get into a top university or get a good job, but it’s fine for most people who aren’t aiming for the best of the best.
A B- is a bit better than average (14 – 14.99). It’s an okay grade that shows some effort was made by the student and they were able to complete their work at least relatively well despite having less than satisfactory study habits or time management skills (or both). An A- (15 – 15.99) means that you’re better than average with reasonable effort put into your work and you have few if any problems with time management issues; however, this isn’t quite at the top of what most employers want out of their employees these days so don’t expect much in terms of job opportunities beyond entry level positions unless you can throw some extra credentials on top of this one such as being bilingual etcetera…
10-11.99 D or C-
If you scored between 10 and 11.99, that’s a decent B grade or a good C-. You may have to take some classes over again, but if your school offers any kind of exam re-take for free or at the reduced price of £20 or whatever it’s called in your country, I’d do it.
If you’re going to university next year and need to get into one of their top programs (which are usually only available to students with high grades), this could be a problem for you if they require an A+.
8-9.99 E or D-
If you’re an E student, then congratulations! You’ve just earned yourself a D- in the UK. And if your grades are even lower than an E, then the lowest grade possible in France is equivalent to a Pass in the UK and Low Pass in the US.
7 Pass (G/P)
Pass (G/P)
Pass (N/P) / Low Pass (L/P) / Fail (F/P)
Passing grade for most courses. Students who fail to earn at least a low pass will not receive any certification or credits towards their degree. Students with borderline results should consider retaking the course in order to improve their chances of passing. This can be done through distance learning or another institution, depending on the university’s policy on transfer credits. If you wish to retake a class that is required for your degree, please contact your school advisor before making any decisions about whether or not to retake it; they may recommend that you take a different course with similar academic value instead!
5-6 Pass (N/P) / Low Pass (L/P) / Fail (F/P) F/P if borderline Pass / Fail
Pass (N/P) if borderline Pass / Fail
Low Pass (L/P) if borderline Pass / Fail
Fail (F/P) if borderline Pass / Fail
Best UK equivalent grade of French grading system is A*, and the weakest one is E or D-.
If you look at the grading system in the UK, it is A* – E. This means that the best grade is A*, and the worst grade is E. You can see how this compares to French grades by looking at their grading system: A1-E1. So if you get an ‘A’ in your French exams, then this would be equivalent to a ‘A*’ in your UK exams! For example, if someone said they got a B+ on their French exam paper, then this would be equal to an ‘A’!
