Scores Out of 14 as Percentages
Every possible score on a 14-question test or assignment, converted to a percentage and letter grade — from 0/14 (0%) all the way to 14/14 (100%). Below the chart you'll find how to do the conversion yourself, the key passing and A-grade thresholds out of 14, and answers to the most common questions.
How to Convert a Score Out of 14 to a Percentage
To convert any score out of 14 to a percentage, divide the score by 14 and multiply by 100:
percent = (score ÷ 14) × 100
example: (13 ÷ 14) × 100 = 92.9%
The resulting percentage is then mapped to a letter grade on the standard 10-point scale. The full table below has already done this for every score out of 14.
Common Scores Out of 14
The score you need out of 14 to hit each key percentage threshold:
- Passing (D, 60%) 9/14 (64.3%) D
- Half marks (50%) 7/14 (50%) F
- C grade (70%) 10/14 (71.4%) C
- B grade (80%) 12/14 (85.7%) B
- A grade (90%) 13/14 (92.9%) A

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a passing score out of 14?
On the standard 10-point scale, 60% is the passing threshold (a D). Out of 14, that means you need at least 9 correct to pass — 9/14 works out to 64.3%. Anything below 9/14 falls under 60% and is a failing grade.
How many questions can you get wrong out of 14 and still pass?
You can miss up to 5 questions out of 14 and still pass. Getting 9/14 correct gives you 64.3% (a D, the lowest passing grade). Miss more than 5 and you drop below 60%.
How many can you get wrong out of 14 and still get an A?
To earn an A you need 90% or higher. Out of 14, that means at least 13 correct (13/14 = 92.9%), so you can afford to miss at most 1 question.
What is half of 14 as a percentage?
Half of 14 is 7, and 7/14 is exactly 50%. Under the standard 10-point scale that is a failing grade (F), since 50% is below the 60% passing line.
Is a score out of 14 graded on a 10-point scale?
Most US schools use the standard 10-point scale regardless of the denominator: A is 90%+, B is 80%+, C is 70%+, D is 60%+, and anything below 60% is an F. A raw score out of 14 is first converted to a percentage — divide by 14 and multiply by 100 — then mapped to a letter. Your own school's cutoffs may differ, so check your syllabus.
