Can someone explain me what is the approximate correspondance between English and Italian degree classifications?
What does a 2:ii correspond to?

When I graduated with a 2:ii in Psychology I was disappointed.

Thanks

    I think a "second" (= second class honours) if I recall. But a more recent graduate can probably correct.

    Well, I don't know if I can translate this in Italian; we have numbers when we graduate. So I don't really know to what "a second class honours" can correspond.

    hi all.
    wondering if anyone knows exactly how to compare degree marks from the british system to the italian one.
    I was not able to find a decent comparison on the web, and I'd need to know
    what's the equivalent in italy of a 2.1 bachelor's degree.
    Trying to apply for a MA in UK, but I need to know first if I have all the requirements..
    thanks!;)
