fkamiah17, The belief that private school students can just waltz into grammar schools as some kind of "second choice" is a perfect example of the educational exceptionalism these people think is their right.
I met so many stupid people from public schools at my university. The idea that they would have either been selected or passed the 11+ to get into my (or any other) grammar school is for the birds.
Paying for a "first class education" doesn't make you intelligent.
