What is Grade Transmutation?

Transmutation of Grades is an essential part of the K-12 Program of the Department of Education of the Philippines. Under thi
academic standing is reflected on a 60-100 scheme on their report card (60 is the lowest possible grade and 100 is the highe
grade; descriptive marks are also given) while a 0-100 grading scheme is actually applied in the classroom with 60% as the pa
The process involves shifting of the Actual Grade (the one computed based on the student’s academic performance) to the T
Grade.

What is a Transmutation Table?


A transmutation table contains the range of the Actual Grades and their equivalences of Transmuted Grades. The transmut
below converts the passing rate of 60% to its equivalent grade of 75. The range for the Actual grade is 0-100 while the ran
transmuted grade is 60-100.

Is there a formula to convert Actual Grade to Transmuted Grade?


The answer is a big YES. You can actually compute the transmuted grade using the formula below.

  AG 
if AG  PAG ; n  LTG 
   PAG  LAG    PTG  LTG  
TG  
if AG  P ; n  P  AG  PAG 



AG

TG
 H AG  PAG    H TG  PTG  
Where,
TG = Transmuted Grade
AG = Actual Grade
= Round down to the nearest integer.

In excel, you can do this with the help of some built-in functions.
=IF(ISNUMBER(A1),FLOOR(IF(A1<60,60+(A1/4),75+(AG-60)/1.6),1),"")

Where,
A1 is the address of the Actual Grade.
ISNUMBER checks whether the cell reference contains a number (TRUE) or not (FALSE).
FLOOR rounds down the number to the nearest integer.
IF checks whether a condition is satisfied. Executes the second argument if TRUE or the third argument if FALSE.

Does this formula work? How did we arrive with the formula?
Yes, it does work. You can actually try and check if it does work. We arrived with the formula by following the steps below.
·         Determine the range of the AG (Actual Grade). That is L AG (Lowest Actual Grade) and HAG (Highest Actual Grade).

·         Determine the range of the TG (Transmuted Grade). That is L TG (Lowest Transmuted Grade) and HTG (Highest Transmuted G

·         Determine the Actual Passing Grade (P AG) and the Transmuted Passing Grade (P TG).
·         The general formula of transmutation can then be used.

Does the general formula work on all cases of transmutation of scores?


Yes, it does. There might be times when you need to tweak it a little bit in order for it to do what you want it to do.
