International Baccalaureate Conversion in India

At a meeting in New Delhi on 26th April 1994 attended by the Secretary General of the Association of Indian Universities and the IBO, a revised recognition and acceptance agreement was approved of the IB Diploma as an entry qualification to all universities in India.
This agreement was revised in January 1999. It is expressed in terms of IB achievement and the equivalence to the marks awarded in the Indian Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) examinations:

IB Diploma Grade	Description	Equivalence to the Indian HSC marks
7	Excellent	93-100
6	Very Good	80-92
5	Good	60-79
4	Satisfactory	40-59
3	Mediocre	30-39
2	Poor	less than 30
1	Very Poor	?
