      Blame state schools, not Oxbridge, for discriminating against pupils | via @Telegraphhttp://www.telegraph.co.uk/education/universityeducation/12049535/Blame-state-schools-not-Oxbridge-for-discriminating-against-pupils.html …

      @JuliaHB1 @Telegraph 1. Your Dad was a GP: no wonder you fitted in at Oxford; 2. By your own logic, Oxford should take 18% more state kids

      @Roborovski1 I am middle class but only because my working class parents went to grammars & university & became professionals. Not posh.

      @JuliaHB1 Hence only a tiny, tiny handful of working-class kids go to Oxbridge, even though many more have the grades/potential

      @Roborovski1 actually very few working class kids achieve the necessary grades, thanks to their schools and other factors.

      @JuliaHB1 Sure that's right, but working-class are also far less likely to get in even if they have the grades as they don't "fit"

      @Roborovski1 no, they're far less likely to apply. Nothing to do with faces fitting, I promise you. The only issue is confidence.

      @JuliaHB1 Do you have a source for that or is it another assertion? Every one you've made so far has dissolved on looking at actual data...

      @Roborovski1 no, my article was full of statistics, as you know. What evidence do you have for your last assertion? Absolutely none.

      @JuliaHB1 But accept some of those may not apply to Oxford: there's no data on it. Can that really explain the whole 45% difference though?

      @Roborovski1 they don't apply in sufficient numbers. Oxford has stats on their website. I explained the various factors in my article

          @JuliaHB1 Oxford have no statistics on applications by social class. I checked. Accounting for factors in article still leaves giant gap

          @Roborovski1 most people accept that stats on school type, neighbourhood and parental income is sufficient. But I'm sure it won't be for you

          @JuliaHB1 Well, social class is ignored in our pretend classless society so I guess you're right there!
