Converting Marks to Percentage and Grade

In many education systems, students receive marks (points) out of a total, and these need to be converted to percentage and letter grade equivalents for transcripts, applications, and comparisons.

Single subject: percentage = (marks obtained / total marks) x 100
Multi subject: total all marks obtained across subjects, divide by total possible marks, multiply by 100
Common grade classifications: First Class (60%+), Distinction (75%+), Outstanding (90%+), though thresholds vary by institution
This calculator also shows how far you are from a target percentage, useful for improvement planning

Percentage-based grading is standard in India, the UK, and many other countries. Use this calculator to convert marks for applications that require percentage format.

You can also calculate changes using our Test Grade Calculator, Grade Average Calculator, CGPA Calculator or Final Grade Calculator.
