GPA in Bulgaria

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Bulgaria, the following grades are used in schools:

• 6 (Excellent) is the best possible grade.
• 5 (Very Good) is the next highest.
• 4 (Good) indicates average performance.
• 3 (Sufficient) is the lowest passing grade.
• 2 (Poor) is a failing grade.

For exact grading, two positions after the decimal point are used. Thus grades as e.g. Poor 2.50 or Excellent 5.75 are common. Every passing grade at or above the .50 mark is prefixed with the term of the higher grade. The minimum is 2.00, grades below 3.00 are failing grades, and the maximum is 6.00.

Roughly, the Bulgarian grade system can be equated to the American one as the following: 6=A, 5=B, 4=C, 3=D, and 2=F.
