At the POWIŚLAŃSKI UNIVERSITY IN KWIDZYN, the grading scale is from 2 to 5.0, and grades will be converted into ECTS credits as follows:
| ECTS GRADE | DEFINITION PSW | GRADE |
|---|---|---|
| A | EXCELLENT – excellent achievements (results) including only minor errors | 5.0 |
| B | VERY GOOD – above an average standard, with some errors. | 4.5 |
| C | GOOD – generally good work with a number of noticeable errors. | 4 |
| D | SATISFACTORY – satisfactory, but with many (important) errors. | 3.5 |
| E | PASSABLE – work (result) meeting minimum criteria. | 3 |
| FX | INSUFFICIENT – credits may be granted if a student completes main gaps in material. | 2.0 |
| F | INSUFFICIENT – credits may be granted if a student repeats the whole material. | 2.0 |
The ECTS grading scale combines key words, i.e. “good” and “excellent” with figures, which makes them more transparent. The number of ECTS grades is a result of a compromise. If there were less grades, they would reflect too few information. Whereas, a bigger number of grades would mean be equal to the level of accuracy which practically does not exist, and the allocation of such grades would require more mechanical work.
