How do they decide on your final degree classification specifically at the University of Leeds (I couldn't find any information on it) ! What is the second year worth compared to the third year? Someone told me that 68 is considered to be a first at Leeds but everywhere else is 70? Is that right?
Sorry if this has been asked before. I'm just about to start second year so I was wondering how much it was worth! Thanks

Yeah, that's right! Leeds considers an average of 68.5 as a first in the final calculation of your average.
They calculate 50:50 (equal weighting) and also a double weighting in the last year and then give you the bigger of the two.
