Australian National University Grade Translator: Letter, Points, Marks

Use this Australian National University grade converter to move between the published grade labels, point values, and marks ranges used in its 7-point scale. It is designed to help you understand what a result means before you calculate GPA or plan your next step.

How to read the grading scale at Australian National University

This converter is built around the published 7-point scale used by Australian National University. The highest listed grade is HD (HIGH DISTINCTION), worth 7 points. In this scale, the lowest listed passing grade is P (PASS), worth 4 points.

Because this grading system uses fixed listed grade values, the converter helps you match each grade directly to its point value. This published scale includes marks ranges as well as grade labels, so you can use the converter to move between score bands, grades, and point values.

Some different grade labels may map to the same point value. For example, P (PASS) and PS (PASS AT A SUPPLEMENTARY EXAM) both map to 4.

Why this converter is useful

Grade labels alone do not always show their full effect on GPA. This page helps you see how a published grade translates into points and, where available, how marks ranges align with those same values.

• Understand grade impact: see how one grade differs from another in actual point value.
• Check score bands: if marks ranges are published, compare marks directly to grades and points.
• Prepare for GPA calculation: use the converter before testing semester or cumulative GPA scenarios.
