Breef brings back what you study before you forget it and plans a last review before each exam, so each grade that goes into your average comes from what you still remember on the day.
How to use it
- Enter your weighted average out of 30. If you don’t know it, the grade average calculator works it out from your exams and credits.
- Enter the points the committee may give your thesis, and any others your degree adds (for honours, graduating on time, an Erasmus).
- Read the starting point out of 110, the sum with the points, and the final mark, rounded and capped at 110.
- Not at 110 yet? It tells you the average that would get you there with the same points.
How an Italian degree mark is made
Most Italian universities turn your weighted average out of 30 into a mark out of 110 (the average × 110 ÷ 30), then add the points the committee gives the thesis and any others the degree’s rules allow. Past 110, the committee can award the lode.
The details are your degree’s own: how many points a thesis can get, which bonuses count, whether the base is rounded first. Check your regolamento and put its numbers in; the arithmetic here is the same.
Questions
How is the starting point out of 110 calculated?
Multiply your weighted average out of 30 by 110 and divide by 30. An average of 27 gives 99; 28 gives 102.67; 30 gives 110.
How many points can the thesis get?
It depends on the degree: many give up to around 7 to 11 points for a master’s thesis and fewer for a bachelor’s, but some use other scales. Your degree’s regolamento says how many.
What average do I need for 110?
It depends on your points. With 7 points for the thesis you need about 27.95; with 4 points, about 28.77. Enter your points and the calculator works it out.
When can I get 110 e lode?
Only when your mark reaches 110, and usually with points to spare; then the committee decides, often unanimously. Some degrees set a minimum starting point for the lode.
