"The higher education watchdog also examined why the proportion awarded top degrees might have risen from 16% to 29%, such as students arriving from school with better qualifications.
But the analysis found much of the increase could not be explained.
The figures showed over 40,000 more students graduated with firsts last summer than in the cohort of seven years before.
Mr Hinds said that if universities were giving many more top degrees without a legitimate reason, it was unfair on those who had studied to the same standard in previous years.
The watchdog showed the changes in students awarded first-class degrees between 2010-11 and 2017-18, including:
Imperial College London from 31% to 46%
University of Huddersfield: 15% to 40%
University College London: 24% to 40%
Durham University: 18% to 38%
University of East Anglia: 14% to 39%
University of Northumbria: 16% to 35%
University of West London: 13% to 34%
Staffordshire University: 14% to 34%
The study also looked at those awarded either first or upper-second class degrees (2:1s). These now account for the great majority of degrees.
In the University of Bristol, 92% of students are awarded either a first or 2:1 and at Cambridge 94% reach this threshold.

The problem, imo, is that grade inflation is rampant in UK universities. The FCH and 2:1 grads are definitely of a different quality than their equivalents 7 years ago

These are general stats, not law. There are alot of degree specializations where FC is super easy to get.
Law only ,will be much lower.

It doesn’t help that the local grads with FCH go on to do LLM from Oxbridge and Harvard thereby perpetuating the feeling of inadequacy and uselessness for anyone with less than a FCH from the local unis.

top 65 per cent to 68 per cent of each cohort in NUS will get 2:1/ FCH.
2:2s are bottom of the barrel either way, no wonder they feel jealous and inferior.

Once new ceca bill pass and wages gets depressed by lowballing cecas with chennai uni LLBs, we shall see if local grads will still whine and bit*h about their UK compatriots with a premeditated plan B.

A NUS First is so so much easier to get than a NUS 2:2
why.
Someone with a low IQ who works hard may end up with a 2:2.
This doesn't mean that a NUS First is not easy for someone with a high IQ.
Idiots

Actly a 2:2 shows in the person’s character as well.
Bcos they don’t have raw talent, their only talent is to put others done.
Talk very loud, resort to dirty tricks to put others down.
What’s new for a 2:2 local grad? Nothing

There is a very simple reason for this.
The metric by which UK universities accept students for undergrad courses is by assessing whether the student will be able to get a 2:1 at the end of his course. The ones who get a 2:2 are students who were assessed to be capable of getting a 2:1, but for some reason, did not. It this stands to reason that they have a higher rate of 2:1 and 1st class graduates.
