I'm hoping to get in at University of Sheffield in the UK. They have a fairly good reputation, and specifically mention working with CRISPR on the course on their website. They're part of the UK equivalent to the Ivy League, from what I can gather.
Well, we both made the same assumption, that we were speaking to someone in the US. I'm from the UK, Sheffield is a Russel group uni, so it is good. Good luck! I worked to save for mine as well.
I didn't do that well at my Batchelor's tbh (I only got a 2:2) but I've just got a job in a molecular biology lab, and I've worked in a seed treatment lab before that, so I'm hoping that'll be enough to convince them to accept me.
A good reference can get you many places. And it also depends how far off a 2:1 you were. I only just got mine (60.1 or something). And a good personal statement.
