The current system of academic grading in Ukraine is in use since 2000. [1]
The Ukrainian system for middle and high school provides grades that lie within 1 and 12. The lowest passing grade is 4. Additionally, the grades are divided into four levels: initial (1-3), sufficient (4-6), average (7-9) and high (10-12). [2]
12 being an equivalent of exceptional, is always given only for significant achievements or exceptionally creative work, hence 11 is the grade that would be called the highest grade in many other countries, i.e. "A" in the United States, while 12 would be "A+".

Latin honors are a system of Latin phrases used in some colleges and universities to indicate the level of distinction with which an academic degree has been earned. The system is primarily used in the United States. It is also used in some Southeastern Asian countries with European colonial history, such as Indonesia and the Philippines, and African countries such as Zambia and South Africa, although sometimes translations of these phrases are used instead of the Latin originals. The honors distinction should not be confused with the honors degrees offered in some countries, or with honorary degrees.
