Tools

Two calculators that Indian and international students ask us for most.

Indian percentage → German grade

German universities convert your marks using the modified Bavarian formula. Enter your numbers to see the German grade a Zeugnisbewertung would give you.

Use the same unit for all three fields — percentages or CGPA.

ECTS credit calculator

One ECTS credit is 25–30 hours of total student work. Enter your workload to see the credits it represents.

IELTS overall band score

Your overall band is the average of the four skills, rounded to the nearest half band. Enter each score to see it.

TOEFL ⇄ IELTS converter

Official comparison tables from ETS. Enter a TOEFL iBT total to see the equivalent IELTS band, or the other way round.

A comparison, not an official conversion. Universities set their own thresholds — always check the one you are applying to.

ECTS Convertor

ECTS Credit Calculator is a simple calculator that calculates the equivalent ECTS credits. In this way, it calculates from the number of precise lecture hours and self-study hours, which are spent on a specific subject.


ECTS is the abbreviation of the European Credit Transfer and accumulation System. It is an academic credit system that performs on the basis of the required students’ workload. It helps to achieve the objectives and learning outcomes. ECTS works for a module or program of study.

The structure of ECTS is designed by keeping the academic recognition for the period of study in mind. The purpose is to facilitate students’ mobility and credit accumulation and transfer as well. If the student is moving across Europe for higher education, the ECTS credit system comes as a savior.
