Protest!Sit-ins. Walk-outs. Smashing up the headquarters of a major political party. Chaining yourself to the railings outside your local sweet shop because they changed Marathons to Snickers. How have you stuck it to The Man?

I like those folk who bleat on about higher education being their "right".It's not a right - it's an expensive indulgence. Since selection by ability has taken a back seat to selection by neighbourhood, the vast majority of degrees in this country have little if any practical value in the workplace, and are little more than an official confirmation that you've had a certain level of upbringing, you hold certain values and you're politically OK.

If selection by ability has taken a back seat, why do a third of applicants end up with no acceptances?
Try doing a UCAS application. I dare you

Bad luck.And as I successfully completed one back in 2003 and went through the system afterwards there's not much point doing it again.

Do another one. Go on. It's banter. You get to write 45 lines about how awesome you are. And be proven wrong that uni places are easy to get, of course
