[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]For parents, it is important to remember that Oxbridge matriculants will nearly all be in the top 10% from their 6th Form school. Not everyone can receive a 1st class degree or even a 2/1. So student mental health is an ongoing issue, especially for students who used to be top 10% and now might end up in the bottom tier at Oxbridge. The tripos exams weight heavily and are no joke, even for the best students. If DC matriculates, please provide solid ongoing moral and emotional support, Do not rely on Facetime to evaluate how DC is feeling. Try to visit if you can.[/quote][/b] This is very true. I have an American student there now so read the Oxford parents Facebook page. Even the British kids (pre-screened by their educational system) have difficulties adjusting and decide to or are asked to rusticate [/quote]
