sup guys I've been disappeared for months because ~life~ and severe depression and all those fun things. but this is a happy thread.

I have an interview for the MRes course at Cardiff. It's very competitive and only 20 students are actually accepted. Wooo life plans!
 
The interview went well, or at least I thought it did; they didn't offer me the place. But on the plus side I graduate with a 2:1 so that's pretty cool.

Because of the depression they're going to let me resit some exams to see if I can get a first. But the 2:1 is pretty good anyway so!
 
UK degree classifications go like this: first class honours, (upper) second class then (lower) second class honours, third class honours, pass, fail.

My 2:1 is ~= to 3.33 - 3.8? GPA in the US, I think.
 
I think it is, but it also depends who's giving it to you. The Cardiff exam guidance lists it as PASS but maybe on the degree they call it an ordinary.
 
Update: have a deferred place at Bath to do the MRes in Regenerative Medicine, am redoing my third year at Cardiff because I'm going to get a first. yay
