Conversion of foreign grades into the German grading system

Conversion of foreign grades into the German grading system

The modified Bavarian formula is used for converting grades from foreign universities to the German grading system.
The equivalent grade in the German system is calculated with the following formula:

\[{N_{max} - N_d \over N_{max} - N_{min}} 3 + 1 = Z\]

 

Nmax = Top grade on the foreign grading scale
Nd = Note value to be converted, achieved abroad
Nmin = Lower pass mark on the foreign grading scale
Z = Searched note value in the German grading system

You can use the grade calculator below to help determine your equivalent grade.
Maximum grades and passing grades for each country are available in the anabin database of the Zentralstelle für ausländisches Bildungswesen.

Please enter the following values:

Maximum grade in the foreign grading system
Minimum passing grade in the foreign grading system
Foreign grade achieved
