DP Assessment
Semester assessment

The semester grade is determined as the arithmetic average of the percentages of achievement in the formative and summative assessments.

Percentage for semester grade =  

50% formative and 50% summative assessment =  

(69+54) / 2 = 62%

Continuous assessment

Conversion scale from percentages to grades on the IB 7 point scale

Formative assessment

Conversion scale from the IB 7-point scale to the national 5-point scale

End-of-year grade

The grade for the year is calculated in a ratio of 

  • 40% of the assessment for semester 1 and 
  • 60% for semester 2,

based on the IB grades in the 7-point system.

In the case of a mark with a fractional part of 0.5 and above (eg 3.5 or 4.5), rounding is made upwards.

  • 50% for the examination paper and 
  • 50% for the end-of-year grade, 

both based on the IB grading scale.

In the case of a final assessment with a fractional part of 0.5 and above (eg 5.5 or 6.5), rounding is made upwards.
