Can you get an upper second class degree with a third in your year?

Yes, it is possible to get an upper second class degree with a third in your year. This is because the final degree classification is based on the average of all your marks across all of your years, not just your third year. So, if you do well in your first and second years, and then get a third in your third year, you could still end up with an upper second class degree overall.

However, it is important to note that getting a third in your year will make it more difficult to achieve an upper second class degree. This is because you will need to get much higher marks in your other years in order to compensate for the lower mark in your third year.

If you are aiming for an upper second class degree, it is important to make sure that you put in a lot of effort and study hard throughout all of your years at university. This will give you the best chance of achieving your goal.
