University of Queensland Grade Scale Converter (7-Point)
Use this University of Queensland grade converter to move between the published grade labels, point values 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 University of Queensland
This converter is built around the published 7-point scale used by University of Queensland. The highest listed grade is HD (HIGH DISTINCTION), worth 7 points. In this scale, the lowest listed passing grade is F (FAIL), worth 1 point.
Because this grading system uses fixed listed grade values, the converter helps you match each grade directly to its point value. This published scale focuses on grade labels and point values, so the converter is designed around those entries.
Some different grade labels may map to the same point value. For example, MF (MARGINAL FAIL) and 3S4 (PASS FOLLOWING SUPPLEMENTARY ASSESSMENT) both map to 3.
