[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 220075, member: 42112"] Hello! I'd say you're absolutely fine to apply to firms that require a 2:1 as that is your official classification. If a form asks for a percentage, I would email the graduate recruitment team to ask what they would advise is the best thing to do in this situation. They might state that entering 'N/A' is perfectly fine, or they might ask you to input your overall percentage (and you will have been able to let them know that you did get a 2:1 overall). I think it would be best to clarify with them directly to avoid confusion, as this might differ between firms. Your strong final-year performance and solid experience will carry a lot of weight and show firms that you are a really strong candidate! While some US/MC firms are stricter, most UK and international firms take a more holistic view, especially when you've proven yourself through real experience. I hope that assists, and best of luck with your applications :) [/QUOTE]
