Do you accept that by inflating points to a certain level it makes universities more attractive? If a person is out there flogging a university to get money into a trust fund, which can be kept at arm's length from the university, is it not in the university's best interest not to have points at a depressed level, even if it actually fits the course? Is it not in the college's or the university's best interest to inflate them to make it look better and leave the student outside the gate?
