In Kerala, the grading system for Secondary and Higher Secondary examinations are based on Nine Point Grading System in which Nine (9) is the higher grade. For 9 grade, the positional value is A+. Now this 9 grade is allotted when a student score at least 90% of the total score of the examination. For students scoring 90 to 100% are given A+ grade. If 60 is the total score of the examination, then 90% of 60 which means 54 marks, the student has to score in order to get A+ grade. At least 54 and at most 60 score can fetch you A+ grade.
