The Indonesia Grading System Explained
Indonesia uses letter grades: A=4.0 (>80%), B=3.0 (70-80%), C=2.0 (60-70%), D=1.0 (50-60%), E=0 (<50%). Pass requires at least D (50%).
Indonesian university finals follow semester systems at 25-40% weight. UAS (end-semester exam), UTS (midterm), and tugas (assignments) are the three main components.
Quick Example (30% final): 80% current → Need >100% for top grade | Need 80.0% for merit/good grade.
Universitas Indonesia, ITB, and UGM follow established norms; private universities vary significantly.

How to Use This Calculator for Indonesia Courses
The formula works identically regardless of grading scale — what changes is the label on the target. Use these conversions:
- First Class / Distinction / A = target 70-90% depending on your institution's cutoff
- Merit / 2:1 / B = target 60-70%
- Pass / 2:2 / C = target 50-60%
- Minimum pass = target 40-50% (check your institution's exact threshold)
