Mongolia → Dutch grade conversion table
Most Mongolian higher education institutions use percentage marks, A-F letter grades and a 4.0 GPA scale. A mark of about 60% is the usual minimum pass threshold; grading practices can vary by institution.
| Home grade | Dutch grade (1–10) | Level |
|---|---|---|
| A / Excellent (90-100%) | 8.0–8.5 | excellent |
| B / Good (80-89%) | 7.0–7.5 | good |
| C / Satisfactory (70-79%) | 6.0–6.5 | satisfactory |
| D / Deficient but passing (60-69%) | 5.5–6.0 | pass |
| F / Fail (0-59%) | 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, Mongolian results should be read together with the Certificate of Completed Secondary Education and the University Entrance Exam for bachelor-level entry, or the completed bachelor degree and transcript for master-level entry. Strong Dutch university applications will normally show mostly A/B-level work rather than only the minimum passing D range.
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.
