In Romanian primary schools, a 4-point grading scale is used:
- Foarte Bine (FB, very good)
- Bine (B, good)
- Sufficient/Satisfăcător (S, pass)
- Insufficient/Nesatisfăcător (I, fail)
In secondary schools, high schools, and universities, a 10-point scale is used, 5 being the minimum grade for passing.
| Grade | Description | Equivalents | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ECTS | ||||
| 10 | excellent | high level of command of all aspects – no or only a few minor weaknesses | A | |
| 9 | very good | high level of command of most aspects – only minor weaknesses | B | |
| 8 | good | major level of command – small weaknesses | C | |
| 7 | satisfactory | fair level of command – some weaknesses | D | |
| 6 | fair level of command – significant weaknesses | |||
| 5 | sufficient | the minimum requirements for acceptance | E | |
| 4 | insufficient | closely sufficient, not acceptable | Fx | |
| 3 | poor performance | basic knowledge of the subject | F | |
| 2 | very poor performance | there isn't any knowledge of the subject | ||
| 1 | academic dishonesty | awarded for academic dishonesty (cheating) and given as a starter point | ||
Specifications such as + and −, half grades, and grades like 6/7 are sometimes used. Note that the grades used in primary school are derived from this scale, with Insufficient meaning "4 or less", and the other grades standing respectively for 5-6, 7-8, 9-10. A 10 is not rare to score, especially in low-interest subjects. An 9 is usually considered an excellent grade. The average grade goes between 7 and 8. A very poor performance is usually awarded a 3 or 4, while a 1 is often reserved for cases of academic dishonesty or some other unacceptable behavior. Grades with 2 decimal digits can also be awarded, e.g. 7.38 means "'very' satisfactory", although in the register (catalog, where grades are written) the grade will be rounded. Grades with 2 decimal digits can also be awarded in certificates of final examinations in secondary schools, but in that case, they are not rounded.
The same system (10-point scale) is used in Moldova and Finland, including in the primary school.[1]
