International Baccalaureate

The International Baccalaureate uses an integer scale ranging from 1 through 7, 7 being the highest grade and 4 being the lowest passing grade. Students in the IB Diploma Programme are graded in six subjects for a total of 42 points. An additional three points are awarded for the Theory of Knowledge subject and the Extended Essay. For the diploma to be awarded students must accumulate at least 24 points and a passing grade in each subject. In admission to university programmes, the IB grades are often converted to a local or national assessment system by some appropriate formula.
