I like to think with all of the grade inflation that has gone on in the last 20 years my 2:2 degree is worth a first nowadays
I did physics at Leicester Uni. I was offered CCC to go there and got BCC. Well done to your daughter, I can see you are very proud, I have atleast a 16 year wait before my progeny gets to think about going to Uni. I was actually at York University Science Park for some business last year, it's one of my favourite cities and a great place for day trips.
