That has to be the most nightmareish mark you can ever get.
1% off a first but employers will hold you in exactly the same standing as the chap who got 60.0000000000000000000000000000001%

Got my 2nd year results a couple of weeks ago. For this semester, I got 4 firsts and a 2:1. But I'm still averaging a first overall.

Tough break, definitely worth taking to an appeal!
What worse is that is was actually 0.6% off the first. I'm absolutely devestated. 10 people got firsts this year (and they really did deserve them).
What screwed me over was 50% in an exam, which totally brought my average down. I honestly thought it was my best exam - clearly not.
I'm trying to appeal, but they arn't having any of it. I was lucky enough to be selected for a viva, but it was impossible, they were asking for references which I hadn't even heard of and for motifs of proteins I havn't studied.
Oh dear *crawls away and dies*

Whereas I was mediocre at best,
Yet later in life

I remember being quite happy but more annoyed about getting a 2:1 and not a 1st. Then I got a job and now - several jobs later - I realise that most employers don't even understand what 'grades' (sic) mean in Degrees.
If it doesn't start with an "M" it can say anything it wants

Doh, I found out - our results were availiable from today if you went to the lecturers direct (not technically supposed to be released yet).
Called but no one in, too late.......Fired off two emails but I suspect I'll be kept in suspense until Monday now!
Arse!

But what business's are going to require long essays which cant be done on computer aided by a spell check?
Actually the main problem is email - the amount of crappy, badly worded emails I had to reply to whilst on placement..
