Grade point scale

In Indonesia, a grade point scale is used. Before the adoption of Kurikulum Berbasis Kompetensi (Competency-Based Curriculum) in 2004, the grading scale used was:

Grade Point Description Notes
10.00 Excellent
(Istimewa)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Highest grade; rarely given
9.00–9.99 Very Good
(Baik Sekali)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Highest common grade
8.00–8.99 Good
(Baik)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
7.00–7.99 Above Average
(Lebih dari Cukup)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
6.00–6.99 Average
(Cukup)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Lowest passing grade in general
5.00–5.99 Below Average
(Hampir Cukup)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Highest failing grade for certain subjects (such as Theology, Mother Tongue/Indonesian Language, and Citizenship)
4.00–4.99 Deficient
(Kurang)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Passing grade in some subjects, a failing grade in others
3.00–3.99 Very Deficient
(Kurang Sekali)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Highest failing grade in general
2.00–2.99 Insufficient
(Buruk)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Failing grade
1.00–1.99 Very Insufficient
(Buruk Sekali)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters". 		Failing grade; lowest possible grade

After the Ministry of Education approved the use of Kurikulum Berbasis Kompetensi (Competency-Based Curriculum) in Indonesia, the grade point range was changed to a 0-100 scale. However, the passing score differs between one subject and another.

Grade Point Notes
100 Highest point (rarely given)
75–99 Passing score in all subjects (above average)
55–74 Pass or fail grades differ between subjects. Some subjects use a score within this range as a passing score. For example, subject A requires a student to get more than 69 to pass while some subjects require students to have at least 56 (more than 55) to pass.
0–54 Student is considered failed and must take a remedial exam. The highest score obtainable in the remedial exam shall not exceed the lowest passing grade.
Note : A score of 70 is the minimal score to pass all grades in some schools during quarantine.

A student is to repeat a year if he or she earns a failing grade in any core subject (Mathematics, Indonesian Language, Religious Education, Science, Social Studies, Civics, Etc.) or if the student fails in more than two non-core subjects. (Local languages, etc.)

Grade letter

Grading systems for universities are different. Grades are usually assigned in letters, following four-point system. Generally, Indonesian universities equate A with numerical value of 4.0 and E with 0.0. Some universities also employs intermediate grades such as A- and B+. This following list describes customary grade boundaries:

University Common I Letter Grade System

A 4.00 85–100 Excellent/Very Good
(Istimewa/Baik Sekali)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
B 3.00 75–84 Good
(Baik)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
C 2.00 60–74 Average
(Cukup)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
D 1.00 50–59 Poor/Passed Conditionally
(Kurang/Lulus Bersyarat)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".
E 0.00 0–49 Unsatisfactory
(Gagal/Tidak Lulus)Script error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".

The lowest passing grade in an exam is usually D or 1 point and to be considered for graduation students must obtain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.000.

Universities are free to (and hence, might) adopt different grading systems or standards at will. Some examples are:
