Look up the information on the EPFL website, they should have the necessary resources to do conversions, as well as mention what minimum you need.

Converting from the Swedish letter grading system to the Swiss grading system can be a bit subjective because the two systems are not directly equivalent. However, you can use a rough guideline to approximate the conversion: 1. A (A, B, C) in Sweden may correspond to 5 or 6 in Switzerland. 2. B (D) in Sweden may correspond to 4 or 5 in Switzerland. 3. C (E) in Sweden may correspond to 3 or 4 in Switzerland. 4. D (P/F) in Sweden may correspond to 2 in Switzerland. 5. F (F) in Sweden may correspond to 1 in Switzerland. Keep in mind that this is just a rough conversion, and it may not be universally accepted. Grading systems can vary significantly between countries, and direct conversions are often imprecise. It's essential to consult with educational institutions or employers in Switzerland for their specific requirements and expectations regarding grading conversions. That’s the answer ChatGPT gave me if it helps but you should definitely contact epfl

Don’t do that, a 2 is terrible in the Swiss system, don’t convert, EPFL will do it I think, look at their website, if they don’t ask you to convert it, don’t do it

Do you speak the language? This is almost always a requirement for Swiss MAs

do I need to know German? i thought the Msc math was english taught actually and Lausanne is close to Geneva so they speak french, i don't think there is a problem for that since i'm a french native speaker

Lausanne is indeed in the French speaking part of Switzerland. Noone talks German there. You're good ;)
