I Was curious what average grades analysts and interns at BB/EB banks get, all of the people I looked up on LinkedIn had a First.
Is getting or being predicted a first now a implicant requirement to stand a chance in todays market?

Yep. IMO at least.
Like 1/3 of all grads get a 1.1 across all unis.
IB doesn’t take the top 1/3 though, it takes the top 1%
I'd agree with you as well, the people with firsts also either ranked first in their cohort or were the top 10/5% in their class.
Did you actually read my comment? Your answer contradicts with mine, and is wrong anyway.
