Romanian Grade Calculator (1-10)

Calculate your Romanian medie ponderata using the national 1-10 scale and ECTS credits. Minimum pass for modules is 5.00. Results are shown to two decimals using official truncation (no rounding).

Grading System Overview (Romania)
National 1-10 scale with ECTS-weighted averages

Romanian higher education uses a nationally standardized 1 to 10 numeric scale, aligned with ECTS. Coursework pass mark is 5.00.

  • Direction: Higher is better.
  • Credits: Credite ECTS / Credite de studiu.
  • Weighted average: Medie ponderata = Σ(grade × credits) / Σ(credits).
  • Truncation rule: averages are kept to two decimals without rounding.
  • Final graduation threshold: final Licenta/Disertatie result must be at least 6.00.

If you are comparing systems, see our GPA interpretation guide and ECTS tools for international context.

How We Calculate Averages
Medie ponderata and final exam outputs
Semester Average = Σ(Grade × ECTS) ÷ Σ(ECTS)

If a module is failed (1-4), it earns 0 credits and must be retaken (restanta). After a successful retake, the passing grade is used for credit and average calculations.

Final Degree Grade = (Proba 1 + Proba 2) ÷ 2

Final exam pass conditions: minimum 5.00 in each component and at least 6.00 overall.

Worked Example (Romania)
Semester weighted average with restanta retake

Failed Statistics (grade 4) initially yields 0 earned ECTS for that module. After restanta retake with grade 7, the updated weighted calculation is:

CourseECTSGradeGrade × ECTS
Macroeconomics6954
Accounting Basics6530
Business Law5840
Statistics (resit)6742
English for Business31030
TOTAL26196
Semester Average = 196 / 26 = 7.538... → 7.53 (truncated)
University Variations in Romania
National standard with limited institutional variation

The Ministry framework standardizes the 1-10 scale, ECTS usage, and pass thresholds nationally. Universities may differ in internal implementation details (for example, component minimums in final exam procedures).

  • University of Bucharest (UB) - national 1-10 model.
  • Babes-Bolyai University (UBB) - national 1-10 model.
  • UTCN - explicitly applies truncation without rounding.
  • SNSPA - national 1-10 model and finalization methodology.
