Pre-lucid Dream: A dream wherein you may exhibit some near-conscious control, but you are not aware that you are dreaming. An example from my personal experiences is where once I said to myself, "Well, if I was dreaming then I would do this..." and I did.
Low-level LD: You are aware that you are dreaming, but you are liable to lose lucidity quickly. Very little to no control over the dream environment.
Medium-level LD: A fairly stable LD, you are capable of controling many aspects of the dream, but not all.
High-level LD: A highly-realistic LD comprising of lengthier period of lucidity and full control over the dream.
But that's just me. Perhaps many of these can be combined together.
I like this one. It's uncomplicated yet complex enough to cover multiple things.
