Want to go to graduate school, do they look at the first degree or the highest degree?

generally speaking, working in a research institute requires relatively high qualifications. If you want to take up R&D and design positions in a research institute, most of them require a master's degree or above. Look at the highest education first. Of course, some very powerful research institutes really depend on your first degree, and some are hard requirements, so we can't help it. But it depends on your personal ability and professional skills to work in graduate schools. If your ability, skills and projects are related to their research, your chances will be greater. If you want to have confidence in yourself, you must first make your knowledge reserve reach a certain height. Now, in addition to your education, society also depends on your ability. Education is only a stepping stone for you to enter a unit, and the key in the future depends on your ability. Find your own position and work hard. I hope you can enter the institute you want to go to.
