Fo law firms differentiate between different 2:1s?

[antisocial applicant]

Hi everyone. During my time at uni, I heard a lot about 'low 2:1s, mid 2:1s and high 2:1s'. I'm wondering if law firms pay attention to the exact percentage average and, if so, are there percentage brackets that divide the different kinds of 2:1s?

If firms do consider them in this way, they’d probably classify them as

60-62 low
63-66 mid
67-69 high

I don’t think firms make decisions purely on these brackets though
