State school student mocks Oxford with letter - Telegraph

State school student mocks Oxford with letter - Telegraph

Ms Nowell parodied the historic institution's own letters, saying Magdalen College "did not quite meet the standard" of other universities.

The 19-year-old state school pupil said she found the "obvious gap" between minorities and white middle-class students "embarrassing".

And she said there were "significant flaws" in their education system.

Miss Nowell - who is predicted A*s in her modern history, law and English literature A-levels - now hopes to study law at University College London.

She described the University of Oxford interview process as "torture" and the college as "rude" for not even providing a glass of water.
