KES vs Stratford girls grammar

I have just received my gcse results and have been offered places at KES and Stratford girls, I’m not sure which to choose as KES is supposed to be one of the best state schools in the country and being accepted is very hard, where as Stratford girls is slightly easier to be accepted into but I liked the manor and environment at the transition days and open evenings. Before results day I originally had my heart set on going to Stratford girls as I thought I would never get offered a place at KES. Has anyone got any advice because I’m really stuck!!?!

Hiii, I decided to go the the girls grammar school to study a level music, psychology and maths - I just felt it was a better fit for me and I preferred the topics covered in music and psychology there compared to KES 😊
