SUMMARY

The UK grading system for undergraduate degrees does not have a standardized percentage equivalent, as it varies by university, course, and department. Classifications such as First Class (1st), Upper Second Class (2i), Lower Second Class (2ii), and Third Class (3rd) are determined by individual institutions and can change annually. For further details, refer to the British undergraduate degree classification Wikipedia page.
