Thus, the Baccalaureate mark represents 60% of the final mark of the Selectividad, while the compulsory phase will be the remaining 40%, with 10 being the maximum mark of the sum of these two parts. Thus, we can understand that the minimum to pass the selectivity or EBAU tests will be a 4 since it allows you to weigh that note with the one taken in the baccalaureate. In the case of taking less, you will have failed.
