English translation: Achieved/Achieved comfortably/exceeded

Spanish to English translations [Non-PRO]
Spanish term or phrase: Alcanzó (muy satisfactoriamente), Superó
Does anyone (particularly from Argentina) know if there is some sort of standard translation for these items, or can anyone venture one? The terms are Alcanzó, Alcanzó Muy Satisfactoriamente y Superó.

Thanks so much in advance,

Paula

Explanation:
I'm not from Argentina but I am offering these proposals under the assumption (perhaps erroneaously) that this is some kind of assessment sheet, examination grading type grading.

Achieved
Achieved comfortably
Over-achieved

If you wished to maintain the same word in each one, use the above gradient.

Hola Paula,
Este oso no es de Argentina, es de México, pero si tu contexto son calificaciones escolares, estas 3 se usan en el distrito escolar en el que trabajo en algunas evaluaciones,y quien quita y con suerte, a la mejor te sirven.
Buena suerte y saludos del Oso :^))

Passed with some level of difficulty, Passed, Passed without difficulty


Explanation:
I imagine you are translating someone's report card, given that these terms are uesd on student's report cards in Argentina. However, in English letters are used for grading purposes.
If I were you I would write the letters next to the subject graded and then explain what the letters mean at the bottom of the report card:

Math PD
English P
Science PWD

PD: passed with some level of difficulty
P : Passed
PWD: Passed without difficulty

Hope this helps
:)

Alcanzó= C, Alcanzó muy satisfactoriamente= B, Superó= A


Explanation:
En el sistema estadounidense se utiliza un sistema de letras letras A, B, C, D, F.

Hasta C está aprobado y D y F son desaprobados o insuficiente.

Otra opción sería
Alcanzó: Passed
Alcanzó muy satisfactoriamente= Satisfactory
Superó: Excelled

EQTS!

Standard, Above standard, Outstanding (or Excellent)


Explanation:
Assuming you refer to school reports, primary level, where there are no marks, they just indicate Satisfactorio, no satisfactorio... or sometimes Alcanzó nivel, alcanzó nivel.

Este sistema, bastante confuso, se utiliza en algunas escuelas en Argentina, particularmente en las públicas. Sin embargo, en algunas escuelas privadas mezclan notas numéricas con estos valores
