The cited grading information supports a specific institutional mapping; it does not establish a nationwide conversion. At the University of Sydney, a mark of 75–84 corresponds to Distinction (DI), while 50–64 corresponds to Pass (PS).
What do the confirmed grade bands show?
| Percentage mark | Letter grade | Abbreviation |
|---|---|---|
| 75–84 | Distinction | DI |
| 50–64 | Pass | PS |
These are the two relationships confirmed by the cited University of Sydney guide. The available information does not provide a verified letter-grade label for every other mark, so it should not be treated as a complete conversion table.
Can these ranges be used as a general Australian conversion?
No. The cited guide establishes the University of Sydney’s published ranges, but it does not establish equivalent ranges for every Australian institution, course or assessment. A mark should therefore be checked against the grading scheme that applies to the student’s own award before being converted, compared or used for another purpose.
How to check a result
A student can:
- Identify the institution that awarded the mark.
- Check that institution’s grading guide.
- Compare the exact mark with the published grade band.
- Check whether the relevant course or assessment applies any different grading scheme.
- If the result is being considered for transfer or credit, ask the receiving institution to confirm separately how it will recognise the result.
What still needs confirmation?
The cited material does not state the complete set of grade bands, confirm that every course uses the same scheme, or explain how another institution will treat the mark for transfer or credit purposes. Those points must be verified with the relevant institutions rather than inferred from the two confirmed ranges.
