[QUOTE="TortillaTC, post: 213535, member: 40677"] I have a lower/mid 2.1 equivalent in undergrad from a non-UK uni and I made it to AC with multiple top firms (SC, other large UK firms, and US, no MC though). Also have no ties to the UK. While they might assess foreign grades differently, I think most firms really do just want to see decent A-levels (or equivalents) and a 2.1 from a reputable uni. I see no reason to worry but you will probably need impressive work experience and other activities to match the level of first class and/or Oxbridge grads. And there are the few firms that do openly care more about top grades like Slaughters or Sullcrom or Jones Day - but honestly there are so many other firms. [/QUOTE]
