Azerbaijan → Dutch grade conversion table
Many Azerbaijani universities use a 0-100 point scale with letter grades A-F. The minimum passing grade is typically 51/100; grades below 51 are failing.
| Home grade | Dutch grade (1–10) | Level |
|---|---|---|
| A / Excellent (91-100) | 8.0–8.5 | excellent |
| B / Very good (81-90) | 7.5–8.0 | very good |
| C / Good (71-80) | 7.0–7.5 | good |
| D / Satisfactory (61-70) | 6.5–7.0 | satisfactory |
| E / Sufficient pass (51-60) | 5.5–6.0 | pass |
| F / Unsatisfactory (0-50) | 1.0–5.4 | fail |
How the Dutch 1–10 scale works
Dutch grades run from 1 to 10, with 5.5 the minimum pass. Most grades fall between 6 and 8; a 9 is rare and a 10 is almost never awarded. Read more in our Dutch grading system guide.
Will my grades be good enough?
For Dutch admissions, Azerbaijani applicants are normally assessed on the full secondary or bachelor transcript rather than a direct percentage formula. Competitive programmes usually expect at least good to very good results, while minimum pass grades alone are unlikely to be sufficient.
Important: this is indicative only
These conversions are estimates. An official grade conversion requires a formal credential evaluation, and each university makes its own admission decision. See our credential evaluation and ECTS credits guides.
