Hi!
Does anyone know if in American English there are different words to describe the "writen" grades (fail, pass, very good, etc.) and number or letter grades (A+, B- or 6.5, etc.)??
It seems that Spanish Universities make a difference between "Calificaciones" (aprobado, suspenso, etc.) and "Nota" (9,5, 7,4, etc.)
Thanks!

Since there are so many options, "pass/fail etc." might be the best solution. Examples of the varieties, in case you need them: Passing grades from systems of one or two passing grades (e.g., Pass/Fail, Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory, Credit/No Credit, or Honors/Pass/Fail, High Pass/Pass/Fail), and those for which conversion rules cannot be formulated, including courses for which a transcript gives only narratives or descriptions. Credits for the work in these courses are totaled and reported separately as unconverted creditshttp://www.lsac.org/policies/transcript-summarization.asp

Tal vez "status", hago la sugerencia pero por falta de CONTEXTO y por no conocer el sistema la dejo a tu criterio nada más.
