[QUOTE="goatenthusiast12, post: 144274, member: 26402"] Hello [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER]. Coming back to this thread as I have scored an overall 2.1 for my first year, albeit a low 2.1. I scored fairly well in my contract coursework but as expected, my low MCQ grades dragged a possible 1st or 2.1 in contract to a high 2.2 instead. Although I am glad that I have managed to score a 2.1 in my first year, I am not as happy with contract being 2.2. My question is whether you still recommend I contact my contract professor and let her know of my situation so that she can put it in my record to explain the 2.2. You previously mentioned that I don't need to rely on my mitigating circumstances if I score a 2.1, but I'm confused on whether you meant a 2.1 in my contract module or 2.1 as my overall first year grade. I'm afraid that when it'll come to applying to vacation schemes and TCs, recruiters would individually look at my first year modules and strike me out based on my contract grade. If that's the case then I'd get in touch with my professor and see whether she can make any adjustments. Thank you in advance. [/QUOTE]
