2:2 > masters > job?

Question

I am to graduate in a few months with a 2:2 and might be looking to study for a masters at my university. But I am not too sure.

There are many firms who have minimum graduate entry requirements of 2:1, do they consider an applicant who has a 2:2 degree and a masters?

Has anyone experienced this? Thanks

Answer 1

While I do have a master's degree, my GPA was higher. Most graduate schools use a combination of GPA, graduate school admission test scores, interviews and recommendations to screen applicants. I have never had an employer to ask my GPA. I have had to submit official transcripts. I suggest that you seek employment and after you gain some practical experience consider graduate school. In all honesty, you are going to have to really pull up your grades to succeed in graduate school. Good Luck
