Grading systems by country

Controversy is mounting over Türkiye's university entrance exam system amid allegations that students with negative scores are being admitted to universities, a claim the higher education authority strongly denies.

Plans for a National High School Diploma in Greece, a key pledge of the New Democracy government, have faltered amid political hesitation, logistical hurdles, and fears of a public backlash.

Thousands of students across Greece on Thursday learned which universities they were admitted to as the Ministry of Education announced the minimum entry grades for Greek universities.

The thresholds were set based on students' results from the so-called Panhellenic exams held in June.

The results of the annual, nationwide university entrance exams can serve as an X-ray, if you will, of Greek state universities.

The devaluation of certain higher education institutions, which students can gain admission to even if they score below par, exposes the structural flaws in the academic structure. 

50% scored below average in Mathematics (2nd & 4th Field). Few scored above 15 in Greek Composition. The highest scores in Ancient Greek is between 13 to 14

All state universities, along with some private institutions, will be closed on May 20 in protest against the government's failure to fulfill its obligations outlined in the Higher Education Law. Activities deemed urgent will proceed, while all other operations will be suspended, as indicated in an open letter circulated by the Council of Rectors.

How will the Minimum Entry Score be determined – Only reputable universities will come – Each one must have a minimum of 30 professors and 3 schools, with the exception of universities that are in the top 20 globally

Greek students enrolling at private branches of foreign universities founded in Greece will be required to go through the local nationwide university entrance exams and meet some minimum requirements in order to be offered a place, Education Minister Kyriakos Pierrakakis said on Wednesday while unveiling draft legislation allowing the establishment of private universities in the country.

The Senate of the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA) has decided to hold exams online as numerous faculties are currently occupied by students protesting government plans to facilitate the establishment of private universities.

The government could not have asked for better promotion of its bill allowing the establishment of private universities than that provided by the squatters at public universities.

Lawlessness, extensive graffiti, and violence are due to a minority that is holding them hostage.
