[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 185377, member: 2672"] 1) the firm will be most interested in your undergraduate degree results as this is what is used from a U.K. qualification perspective. 2) Firms tend to have a strict requirement for university grades, and so in most instances I wouldn’t expect a firm to compensate through work experience. Firms do take into account international grading systems and use information similar to what universities use to compare grades from many different countries to what the equivalent U.K. grades would be. It is not an exact science - you are ultimately not comparing like to like, but there are calculations that give an approximate equivalent grading to help compare to UK grades. [/QUOTE]
