Many teenagers I know have got enough A's to get them into Oxford or Cambridge University! When I was at school, about 4 in 500 students got the marks to get into top universities. Does this mean that the value of the 'A' has diminished?Do my 3 (respectable and above average- at the time-) B's now equate to D's or E's? And don't even get me started on those who claim the exams were marked too harshly! If you didn't get the results you were hoping for then Tough! You should have tried harder! A good workman doesn't blame his tools. (not sure if that expression works here) . However, apparently the teenage pregnancy rate has gone down, maybe this explains everything!
