British grade classification
There are strict grades for bachelor's degrees in British universities. The undergraduate education system of British universities is 3 years (4 years in Scotland), and the examination scores of sophomores and juniors each account for 50% of the degree courses. As the adaptation stage of bachelor's degree, test scores are not included in the degree level.

Full score in the British university examination 100, 40 points passed. The score is related to the corresponding credits, and the score is calculated by weighted average method.

British bachelor's degree is divided into four levels (level 1, level 2, level 3, average score):

1. The first-class score is above 70 points.

First-class achievement is usually the highest achievement of a degree awarded by a university. About 1 1% of British graduates graduated with first-class results.

The proportion of students who get the first grade in different universities and courses is also very different, and there are relatively few students who can get the first grade in law, physics and engineering. First-class scores generally need to reach more than 70%, and British universities rarely see scores above 80%.

2. Category II) 50-69 points)

Senior two class 60-69%

The second grade is the second highest after the first grade, and most graduates get their diplomas with the second grade. Second-class products 60-69%. Employers require graduates to achieve at least this score before being hired.

50-59% below the second class.

The second grade is second only to the second grade, and the number of scores is second only to the second grade. About 29% graduates can get this grade every year. The second level is equivalent to 50-59%. Although it is also a second-class merit, it is far from the second-class merit in terms of employers.

3. Third class) 40-49 points)

The third-class score is 40-49%, and the application for master's courses is restricted, and the general professional employment will not be restricted.

4. General degree

Ordinary grades are equivalent to passing, and I can barely get a degree certificate, with a score of about 40%.
