First-class honours
First-class honours degrees (often simply "firsts") are the highest level of degree awarded and are taken to indicate high academic achievement and ability. Many holders of first class degrees go on to further academic study, becoming researchers, academics and professors.

In most universities, First-class honours are the highest honours that can be achieved, with about 11% of candidates achieving a First nationally for the academic year 2006/07.[1]

A minority of universities award First Class Honours with Distinction, informally known as a Starred First (Cambridge, York) or a Congratulatory First (Oxford). These are seldom awarded.

A Double First can refer to First Class Honours in two separate subjects, e.g., Classics and Mathematics, or alternatively to First Class Honours in the same subject in subsequent examinations, such as subsequent Parts of the Tripos at the University of Cambridge. At Oxford, this term normally refers to a First in both Honour Moderations and the Final Honour School.

[edit] Second-class honours
The bulk of university graduates fall into Second-class honours, which is usually divided into Upper and Lower divisions.

[edit] Second-class honours, Upper division
The upper division is commonly abbreviated to 2:1 (pronounced two-one).

Many competitive jobs in the UK now have a minimum requirement of a 2:1 for graduate entry.[2]

Many reputable universities have a university-wide minimum requirement of a 2:1 for entry into their postgraduate degrees.[3][4]

About 45% of all graduates achieve a 2:1.[5]

[edit] Second-class honours, Lower division
This is the **second division** of second class degrees and is abbreviated as 2:2 (pronounced two-two).

[edit] Third-class honours
Third-class honours is the lowest honours classification in most modern universities. (Until the 1970s, Oxford awarded Fourth-class honours degrees, but did not distinguish between "Upper-Seconds" (2:1s) and "Lower-Seconds" (2:2s), and so still had four classes like other establishments.) Roughly 7.2% of students graduating in 2006 with an honours degree received a Third.[5][6].
