'The UK university admissions service UCAS “for the first time” has put out data regarding the likelihood of college acceptance “based on gender, ethnicity and the social background of applicants.”
And guess what — “Women were found to attend university 90 per cent more than men,” and “disadvantaged groups, young men and the white ethnic group are the most under-represented in higher education.”
UCAS Chief Executive Mary Curnock Cook said “Girls are doing better throughout primary, secondary and higher education than boys; poor, white boys are the most disadvantaged group in entry to higher education and the gap is getting bigger.”'
