Perhaps many students heard about UCL is planning on changing the grading system and also the classification of degree. Recently, some lecturers and tutors start to talk about it. And from a reliable source, the GPA system is going to be adopted start from next academic year.
It is a dangerous idea since not all employer in UK understand what is the GPA system like. It will definitely put students in disadvantage. I guess students applying universities with IB will know what I mean.
