“5” or “Excellent”: This is the best possible grade, representing excellent knowledge in a given subject.)

“4” or “Good”: A 4 means that your knowledge in the subject is good.

“3” or “Satisfactory”: This is the passing grade and translates to fair/ satisfactory.

“2” or “Unsatisfactory”: This grade is equivalent to the 1st level of failing, denoting minimum knowledge

“1” or “Poor”: This is the lowest possible grade, equivalent to complete failure and is not given very often
