English term or phrase: equivalent to a "C"

Hola a todos:

Esta pregunta no da puntos porque estoy buscando variaciones regionales para tratar de llegar a una opción que sea comprensible entre la mayoría de los latinoamericanos.

La expresión en inglés dice "the equivalent of getting a 'C' in graduate school".

¿Qué es una "C" en el sistema de calificaciones de sus países?

Mil gracias,
A.

equivalent to a C equivalente a un 2

Explanation:
En la Argentina se maneja con un sistema de puntuación numérico (a diferencia del norteamericano, que es por letras), pero basándome en tu petición, he encontrado en internet un sitio que da unas "equvalencias" y explicaciones que de seguro te serán útiles.

Explanation:
"the equivalent of getting a 'C' in graduate school".

el equivalente de una calificación reprobatoria en postgrado

En Estados Unidos se considera que la "C" es reprobatoria a nivel de postgrado, o sea que no tiene valor aunque oficialmente no es reprobatoria.

Pero así la van a tomar en cuenta...

equivalent to a nota o calificación insuficiente/reprobatoria/no aprobada

Explanation:
Todo esto se entiende que es para un curso de postgrado, verdad?
En otro caso seria una nota de "mediano" como dice Ruth Henderson, pero como dices que es para un nivel mas alto, como PhD. entonces es peor que eso.
Opciones para la explicación.
