    The 7-point grading scale is used in all Danish universities and education programs. It ranges from -3 (worst) to 12 (best), with 02 being the minimum passing grade. Grades are based on how well students meet the academic goals of each subject or course, not on curves or comparisons to other students. While most grades are on the scale, some courses can also be pass/fail.

    The 7-point grading scale used at Danish Universities:

    The grading system used in all Danish State-regulated education as from August 2007 is the 7-point grading
    scale, including vocational education and training. The grading scale is compatible with the ECTS-grading
    scale.

    Grade Description ECTS


    12 For an excellent performance A Satisfactory/Pass
    displaying a high level of command of
    all aspects of the relevant material,
    with no or only few minor weaknesses.
    10 For a very good performance displaying B
    a high level of command of most
    aspects of the relevant material, with
    no or minor weaknesses.
    7 For a good performance displaying a C
    good command of the relevant material
    but also some weaknesses.
    4 For a fair performance displaying some D
    command of the relevant material but
    also some major weaknesses.
    02 For a performance meeting only the E
    minimum requirements for acceptance.
    00 For a performance which does not Fx Unsatisfactory/Fail
    meet the minimum requirements for
    acceptance.
    -3 For a performance which is F
    unacceptable in all aspects.

    The individual student’s performance is assessed according to the extent to which the specific academic
    goals are met for the specific subject or course (absolute grading method). The relative grading method (for
    example, grading on a curve) is not used.

    Apart from the 7-point grading scale, pass/fail assessment may also be used.
    02 is the minimum grade for passing an exam.

    If the student does not attend an exam for which he was registered, the transcript will show ‘Absent’.
