 OXFORD TO SCRAP ENTRANCE EXAM          
                                        
 The University of Oxford has decided to
 abolish its special entrance exam,     
 which allegedly favoured independent   
 school candidates.                     
                                        
 Until now, sixth-formers had the option
 of taking two or three special papers  
 instead of relying on A level results. 
                                        
 It was believed that the system        
 favoured pupils from independent       
 schools which were able to organise    
 special coaching for the exam.
