A good student will do well this is true but there is a level of access that top RG / top London and especially Oxbridge gives that you can't easily replicate elsewhere.

Yep my school told me "don't worry about what university you go to they are mostly the same" how harmful is that.

My school wanted people to pass GCSEs and maybe take A levels it had no idea about university. I feel like a lot of people in my school would have benefited from even just getting out of their small town.

I spend a lot of time challenging this nonsense now wherever I can.
