Frequently asked questions

How is percentage calculated from marks?

Divide the marks you obtained by the total possible marks, then multiply by 100.

Do all institutions use the same letter grade scale?

No — the A/B/C/D/F cutoffs shown here are a common convention, but many schools, colleges, and exam boards use their own scales (including relative/curved grading).

What's the difference between this and the Marks Percentage Calculator?

They use the same formula — this page frames it as an overall "grade," while Marks Percentage Calculator is framed for a single test or assignment.
