In ECTS,60 credits represent one year of study (in terms of workload); normally 30credits are given for six months (a termjsemester).The Polish grading system in higher education is based on the 5 to 2 scale, where 5 is the best mark and 2 is the worst.Moreover, students can also be marked with additional signs of + and -. Each of them equals half a point: + means 0.5 more. Samecourses, however, are not evaluated on such a marking scheme and for these a student may simply obtain za/o or zaliczenie (EN.'pass') which means that their workload was satisfactory and they have passed the course.
