* The country/region: Grading systems differ globally.
* The educational level: Failure rates are different in elementary school, high school, and college.
* The subject: Some subjects are inherently more challenging and have higher failure rates than others.
* The institution: Some schools/colleges have stricter grading policies than others.
While anecdotal evidence might suggest a particular grade (like a "D" or "F" in US systems), there's no reliable global statistic to support a single answer.
