Academic grading in Chile

Academic grading in Chile

In Chile, a grade point average ranges from 1.0 up to 7.0 (with one decimal place) are used, where:

* 7.0 (excellent) is the best possible grade
* 6.0-6.9 (very good)
* 5.0-5.9 (good)
* 4.0-4.9 (sufficient); 4.0 is the lowest passing grade
* 1.0-3.9 (insufficient) are failing grades; 1.0 is the worst possible grade.

Generally, it's a linear scale, with 1.0 meaning 0% achievement, 4.0 meaning 50% or 60% achievement (depending of the scale used), and 7.0 meaning 100% achievement. Rounding of averages is generally done to the second decimal; hence, a 3.95 is rounded up to a 4.0, whereas a 3.94 is rounded down to a 3.9.
