[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 32653, member: 2672"] I think any 2020 grades are going to be taken with a pinch of salt to some extent given all the different combinations in which unis have awarded grades this year. If you don’t have any formal grades, I would try to get your personal tutor to provide some form of academic reference to verify they think you would have achieved a 2.1, and attach it to any application or follow up with that reference by email. Grades are still going to matter - I suspect firms will want to see you have achieved a 2.1, either in mock assessments, January assessments etc. Unfortunately Covid-19 really isn’t mitigating circumstances as such as everyone is going to have the same set of circumstances. But I think firms will be open minded to assessments completed between April - July 2020 and will obviously be aware of the what’s been going on and can take that into consideration. [/QUOTE]
