What is a good grade? (leddit.danmark.party)

Hej hej, I’m currently studying for a masters in Denmark. I’m not from here originally so as everyone is I have been confused about the grading system.

What I am most curious about is what a ‘good’ grade is, not just according to the grading scheme but to employers, socially, etc. I’m looking to stay in DK long term so I’m wondering what kind of ‘GPA’ would be safe to achieve to make sure my grades won’t be any issue when applying for jobs.

Taaak :)

Edit: I’m studying in social sciences at KU - I would say my program but it’s small and I want to stay anonymous haha

I’m also aiming to work in consulting post grad !

As a former teacher at a university college I would definitely say 4 is average and 7 is above average (corresponding to the old 7 and 10). But students often see 7 as the old 7, not as the old 10.

7 is not the old 10. It’s the old 8 and 9.

10 is the old 10. And 12 is the old 11 and 13

The problem is perspective. If you consider failing an option, 4 is indeed average. But as a student who really doesn't want to consider failing as an acceptable outcome, 7 indeed becomes the new average grade.
