The article explains the calculation method for the final grade at the 2026 Baccalaureate exam in Romania, which determines whether students pass the exam and their eligibility for university admission. The final grade is calculated as the arithmetic mean of three written exams: Romanian language and literature, the mandatory profile subject (mathematics or history depending on the track), and the optional profile and specialization subject. This average is displayed with two decimal places without rounding. To pass, students must score at least 5.00 on each individual exam and achieve a final average of at least 6.00. Additionally, they must pass separate assessments of linguistic and digital skills, though these do not factor into the final grade calculation.
