Private vs State: Do Universities Prioritise Either Candidate?
Quite a few of my friends have been saying that a lot of universities prioritise students from state schools over private school pupils.
I attend an all-girls private school.
Is this true? (in your experience or not in your experience of course.)

I'd imagine most universities don't prioritise either. Some universities definitely give a grade bonus to those who come from state schools though, the size of the bonus depending on exactly how bad the state school is.
