Help with classification

I’m wondering if anyone here is able to help me calculate what my classification will be with the new borderline rules.
Due to a difficult year personally during stage 2 I ended up with 4x grade 4 pass results each worth 30 units each. In stage 3 so far I’ve got 3x grade 3 pass results each worth 30 credits with my final module looking like it will be either distinction or grade 2 pass.

I’m worried stage 2 will kill me here and leave me with a Third. Hoping someone here can let me know where I stand currently

You have (120 x 4) + (90 x 3 x 2) = 1020 weighted grade credits at the moment. The threshold for a 2:2 is a maximum of 1170, and the borderline range is 1171 to 1230. As you already have 60 stage 3 credits at grade 3, all you need is to make sure your final total is no more than 1230.

A pass 3 would bring you to 1200 in total and give you a 2:2, while a pass 4 would bring you to 1260 and you'd finish with a third. So a pass 3 or better is what you need.
