Italian term

esito favorevole

Italian to English Other Certificates, Diplomas, Licenses, CVs degree certificate
Hello,
For this result, I thought 'satisfactory', but the overall mark is 116/120 for a laurea in medicina veterinaria and 'satisfactory' does not seem to reflect this high mark.

Any ideas?

- It is a degree certificate. I think I will go with Paul's suggestion of pass, as, like he says, the high mark speaks for itself. Thank you all for your help.

Amy is actually on a degree certiicate, on a CV, or about one of those, or something else.

pass/high pass

It is a passing grade...it is a pretty good score percentage wise, but I'd hesitate to add another adjective if it is not in the Italian
