poor, unsatisfactory, hence a fail
I think we'd have to assume that it would be in line with the Spanish, which is as I have written above, so it's bound to be a fail, but you could just say unsatisfactory to be faithful to the original.

Helen Johnston
: I'd go for 'fail' The conventional scale is 'insuficient' (fail) 'suficient' (pass) 'bé' (good) 'notable' (very good) 'excel.lent' (excellent)
