Uni grades concern

Hi all,

Just wanted some advice on uni grades affecting vac schemes and TCs. I have averaged 63% in first year and 62% in second year, and I am aware that the threshold is a 2:1. But I'm worried it is too low a 2:1 and that despite having a 2:1, I will be filtered out. In those grades, I also have two 2:2s (56 and 56) and some firsts.

Is this something causing rejection?

Thanks.
