Thats very true, i went for lunch with my ex gf from school. She got poor grades compared to me and got into university only after attending the ASPIRE course. in the end she graduated the same time as me with the same 2:1 honours. Many of the people at our schools who got top grades dropped out of uni which we both ound suprising.
Needless to say she was dead chuffed about it especially after her guidence teacher had advised her to try a career like hairdressing or spend a few years at college.
