If my kids really wanted it and I had the money, I'd send them on an integrated course, not snatch a full ride from those struggling to be noticed. It's clear that who you know and the school you went to impacts who makes the cut.
Sure, some got in through connections, but that doesn't make it right, or fair. The system's frustrating - in an airline preaching diversity, you'd think they'd level the playing field so nobody had an unfair advantage. Two siblings getting it out of 24,000 applicants just screams nepotism - I’m sure you can agree that it is far too much of a coincidence. Theres a 1 in 48,000 chance that they’d both be on it - so it defies the odds. It's all about "jobs for the lads." Just pointing out the obvious facts.
