How the French Grade (/20) ↔ Indian Percentage Converter works
How conversion works on this page
French higher education uses a 0–20 scale where 10 is typically the pass mark and mention levels (assez bien, bien, très bien) sit at published thresholds (commonly 12 / 14 / 16). Band mapping follows those conventional mention cut-points.
Use the mode toggle for Indian % → foreign scale and the reverse. Band tables are shown under the result.
Country / scale context
Campus France and individual Grandes Écoles publish India-specific grade guidance; a literal ×0.2 conversion of percentage to /20 is sometimes used informally but mention bands are what French transcripts emphasise.
Important limitation
Credential evaluators (e.g. WES) and individual universities may apply course-by-course evaluation that differs from a single overall percentage mapping. Treat outputs as educational guidance for planning, not as an official evaluation report.
Frequently asked questions
Is this an official conversion from a credential evaluator?
No. It applies documented common conventions and cites them. Official WES / university evaluations can differ.
Can I convert both ways?
Yes — use the mode toggle above the inputs.
Where do the bands / formula come from?
French higher education uses a 0–20 scale where 10 is typically the pass mark and mention levels (assez bien, bien, très bien) sit at published thresholds (commonly 12 / 14 / 16). Band mapping follows those conventional mention cut-points.
Will a university accept this percentage?
Always check the target institution’s published India / overseas equivalency table. This tool does not replace an admissions decision.
