CEES stands for 'Cumulative Grade Point Average, ' which is a measure of academic performance. It is calculated by taking the total number of grade points earned in all courses and dividing it by the total number of credit hours attempted. MEDIOCRE GRADES refer to grades that are not particularly good or bad, but rather average. A CEES of 2.0 or lower is considered to be mediocre, indicating that the student has achieved an average level of academic performance.
