yeh that was one of the six criteria i didn't meet

i wish they'd have made it clearer what was on this criteria because i always thought if you were borderline you'd have a pretty good chance as they'd try and get you the marks from another piece of work. My thesis would have also have had to have been in the top band(which it wasn't) it's just so frustrating that we are talking one percent, and there is so much difference between how a 2.2 and how a 3 are perceived. And its not like i can write on my CV 3rd ( but one percent off) . I think im just gonna have to live with it but was just curious if anyone knew of anyone who had similar and amnaged to get it bumped up
