In Portuguese middle-schools, a five-point grading scale is used, where:

  • 5 (very good or excellent) is the best possible grade,
  • 4 (good),
  • 3 (satisfactory) indicates "average" performance,
  • 2 (unsatisfactory),
  • 1 (poor) is the lowest possible grade.

In high-schools and universities, a 20-point grading scale is used. When it is the case of the final grade of an academic degree, each grade is assigned a qualitative mark by decree:[1]
