Incidentaly the entry requirement to St Andrews ais AAA or ABB are you saying that no poor students achieve these grades?

You're missing the point , Kate is still out of touch as she's never lived in poverty ... Like Annie said she's gone to exclusive schools / colleges etc all her life .
And no it's not just grades AAA or ABB you need to get into st Andrews , it's also difficult to get into due to other factors.
Of course a poor kid or a working class kid can get good or even excellent grades ,but they will still find it difficult to get into one of these types of universities, unless they have the money & connections & are not judged by their different class .
