Hey lads,

just wondering does anyone know the QCA for the different types of honours degree?

iirc it goes like this:

1st = 3.4
2nd = 3.0
3rd= 2.5
4th = 2.0

Different names on them now afaik also

2.90 QCA for a 2.1 Degree as far as I know. The student handbook used to say if you were within .10 of the next grade up you would be moved up.

Just to quote the relevant paragraph from the handbook pointed out by Klong:

Notwithstanding the provisions of 2.7.3 [the paragraph which outlines the QCA requirement for each degree] above, the University Examination Board may consider a candidate whose final cumulative QCA is not more than 0.10 less than the QCA required for a first class, 2.1 or 2.2 classification and who satisfies the other Handbook of Academic Regulations and Procedures 11 November 2008 13 requirements for an honours award for the award of a bachelor’s degree, diploma or certificate at the appropriate honours classification.
