    Depends.

    I myself got a 2.9 (2.96 I think) and got a 2.1, while other people I know who got a 2.9 got a 2.2

    FYP results may have a lot to do with it, so does if you have shown improvement throughout the 4 year course. These 2 are to be taken with a grain of salt as they may or may not be true.

    improvements over the course duration and fyp are taken into account.

    think it's college wide but I wouldn't be surprised if it was a discretionary thing
