The Pass Mark defines the percentage score required to pass a course test. By default, it's set to 60%.
You can configure it globally (for all courses) or for individual courses. When both are set, the individual course setting overrides the global one.
Note: The pass mark can be changed, but it won't retroactively affect the completion status of users who have already completed the course.

What happens if a pass mark is changed after some users have already completed the course?
Changing the pass mark doesn't affect users who have already completed the course. If the pass mark is increased, users who previously passed with a lower mark keep their passing status. If it's lowered, users who previously failed won't retroactively pass, even if their score now meets the new requirement.
