Dear Collins,

thank you for your e-mail.

We gladly provide you with further information about the calculation of your final grade.

As the university certificate shows, your graduation score is 3.06 (out of 5).
According to anabin, the maximum score for the bachelor's degree is 5 and the minimum passing score is 2.

The conversion from your graduation score into a German grade is carried out, using the so-called "Modifizierte Bayerische Formel":

              Nmax - Nd
mark = -------------------- * 3 + 1
            Nmax - Nmin


N max (maximum mark) = 5
N min (lowest pass mark) = 2
N d (your graduation score) = 3.406


                5 - 3.06
mark = -------------------- * 3 + 1 = (0,646 * 3) +1 = 1,939 + 1 = 2,939
                5 - 2

Hence, your grade is equivalent to a German grade of 2,9.
Within the German grading system the grade of 1,0 is the best possible grade and the grade of 4,0 the minimum passing grade.

Anabin clearly states that 1 means pass but 2 is the minimal grade point average for a degree.


We hope this information is helpful for you and wish you all the best for your application.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate contact us again.

Wrong as far as I kno.... The lowest passin grade on a scale of 5point GPA is 1 not 2. I.e 5-1 NOT 5-2..(Denominator).....Mathematically equals A german Scale of 2.45 if you recalculate which is pretty good for admission into some masters program across germany. #BestOfLuck..
Re: General German Visa Enquiries Part 2 by victz: 12:36pm On May 20, 2015
I think Uni-assist is making a mistake here. Let them know that your highest passing grade is 5.0 while your lowest passing grade is 1.0 and not 2.0. Going by the right calculation your CGPA conversion to German grade is 2.45 and not the 2.9 that Uni-assist calculated. You can use these link to calculate it your self and explain things to them. Your problem might be lack of detailed explanation. http://onlinemacha.com/german-grade-calculator

It's fully taught in german, you need at least B2 to be invited to take the entrance exam.
If you pass the entrance exam,you can be admitted to studienkolleg, some entrance exam have maths and deutsch exams.
After 2 semester you write a final exam,when you pass, you can use the result ro apply to any german university or poly.

admission is based on result and other factors but almost all students from Studienkolleg gets admissions.

Someone just told me that they have unanimously canceled pass as a graduating grade in the Nigerian university system..... If that's true,then the new minimum grade will be a third class and I think that's the issue here......Just what I heard though.

The new passing grade wasn't what affected him.
Uniasst clearly erred in their conversion.

If the pass degree were to be scrapped ,then third class will be 1(lowest possible grade) ,second class lower will be 2,second class upper will be 3,while first class will be 4( highest possible grade).
If your grade was recalculated with the above stated indices, then you should arrive at something close to 2.5 or better.
Since D will be the new passing grade, E grade will be scrapped totally ,so D will be 1 while A will be 4 .

Mail their ass and ask them to comport themselves Jor
