If you come out with a 1st or 2:1 from a good university in a strong subject then you're going to be worth far more than someone from a poor university, recruiters get paid a load of money to be able to differentiate these things plus after the 17 rounds of interviews and assessments you have to go through any weak candidates are filtered out.

Oh it's me!
At the moment I'm getting away with saying that I expect a 2:1. But I'm in severe danger of getting a 2:2 (I'm borderline and finding this year hard).
I'm at Cardiff Uni (a typical good university) doing Law (bloody difficult), and I'm scared shitless that if I don't have a job lined up for when I graduate then I'll struggle to get one at all.
