The pass/fail grading system is an alternative to a letter grading system in higher education courses. Students who receive a C or higher grade typically will pass the course under this system, while those who receive a D or F will fail.Sometimes only an F means failure.he pass/fail system arguably puts less pressure on students and allows them to relax and study without obsessing about achieving a high letter grade. This also permits students to become more exploratory in the courses they choose to take.
Academic grading in the United States commonly takes on the form of five letter grades. Traditionally, the grades are A, B, C, D and F â A being the highest and F, denoting failure, the lowest. Numeric to letter grade conversions generally vary from system to system and between academic disciplines.
