ding System
Slovenian grading scheme ECTS grading scheme Description of the grades

errors.
8 (Very Good) C (Good) Generally sound work with a number of notable
7 (Good) D (Satisfactory) errors.
6 (Poor)
E (Sufficient) Fair but with significant shortcomings.
5 – 1 (Unsatisfactory) F, FX (Fail)
Performance meets the minimum criteria.
Considerable further work is required.
The University of Primorska is in the process of converting the grading system, following
the European Grade Conversion System - EGRACONS. The Egracons project was a Life-
long Learning project (2012-2015) co-funded by the European commission aiming to facilita-
te exchange mobility by working out a conversion system based on ECTS grade conversion
tables. The project aimed to build up a wide-spread awareness and common understanding
of the different grading systems in Europe and to enable an accurate interpretation of grades
given abroad, leading to a fair and manageable conversion of these grades to a local grade in
the home institution. The project also developed an online, web-based EGRACONS Grade
Conversion Tool that offers a user-friendly web-based tool for grade conversion.
