Poor Pupils 'miss out on top universities'

I also read the article "Poor Pupil's 'Miss out on Top Universities.'"  This article, from Britain, talks about how students from low achieving schools with high test scores, don't get into top universities.  Instead, the openings are going to pupils from private schools who have exam scores which are not as good.

This has a big impact on education because as teachers, we may be getting them ready for college in high school.  However, if they know that even if they work really hard, they will not get into the university they want to get into, they are not going to try or they will become discouraged.
