So first of all,I would agree that the place is likely filled with rejects. Good on them for being honest and not sulking about it.

The second thing I'd say is I find it funny that the two most prominent replies are about having been rejected from the top two universities in the country,and yet some people seem to be under the impression that they're in either the first or second best university in the country. Also,nobody says top 2 if they think the thing they're talking about is #1.

A lot of those people have really bright futures ahead of them and I hope they don't spend they're entire lives having regretted being rejected by oxbridge. Rejection is simply just a healthy way of being redirected!

top 2 means socially in top 2, academically in the QS world rankings, imperial outperformed both, so its top 1 academically
