In which case surely your educational background shouldn't really matter..?
To be fair if I saw an Oxbridge degree on an application form I'd be more likely to discriminate against the applicant.
lol.
My first class (hons) Bachelors is from an ex-poly. Lovely place, but one of my assignments was marked at 100% before someone sensible moderated it down to 85%. My BSc average was either 78% or 79%.
The idea of getting 85% here is a joke. Not going to happen. 75% is described as publishable in a friend's department, and that seems to hold for my department n all.
tbf, one 85% assignment would bring the average of three 65% assignments up to first class.
Whereas atm I'm far more knife-edge. One bad assignment is harder to balance out. A 65% needs to be balanced by a publishable paper if ya want a first class degree!
e2a: just seen the rest. Nicely
