[quote=Anonymous]It is weird how so many people hate a school they have not visited, and their kids don't attend. I have visited (it's lovely), I do have a child attending (who had a 34 ACT and doesn't party), and I work with Brits. I actually heard last week from a UK colleague whose child is head girl at a very famous UK boarding school and will be attending St Andrews next year. It was her top choice and my colleague is thrilled.

I'm not a huge fan of rankings, especially at the undergraduate level, and I really don't care what random DCUM people think about a school my DC loves, but for those of you whose child is interested in the school I will point out one objective factor in the Guardian ranking table shared by the PP: the average entry tariff, which is a numerical score UCAS assigns to each student based on grades, test scores, and qualifications. St Andrews has the highest average entry tariff, which means that in DCUM-speak there are quite a lot of high stats students attending the school.
