    So at the moment im going into fourth year in September and my accumulated qca is 2.73 , im doing business studies so my final year is worth 50 percent of my degree.

    Can anyone tell me what type of grades i need to achieve to attain a 2.1 degree or would this be almost impossible.

    Also ive heard there is a discretionary band of 2.9 that will put you in line for a 2,1 ; can anyone shed light on this as its all so confusing ?

    You'll need a qca of 3.27 to get a 2.1 so mainly b1s with some a2s to boost the qca up.

    Seriously? You can't add it up yourself?
    Considering you had to ask here, I'm going to say it's impossible.

    In order to calculate the answer to this difficult problem, I have resorted to the advanced mathematical functions in MS Paint. All you need to do is get a QCA in your final year of X so that the right hand side of the scale is equal to or heavier than the left hand side.
