Dear Sir,

Increased university applications to avoid top up fees deny future doctor a chance.
The predicted rise in university applications as students try to beat top up fees has happened and is making life very hard for the current crop of applicants. Students who would normally take a gap year are deciding to go straight to university to avoid top up fees. This has seriously affected the chances of some students, in particular one from Kingsbridge Community College who desperately wants to study medicine but cannot get a place. With 10 GCSEs, 4 with A* and 6 As, 3 grade A AS levels and a prediction of 3 As at A- level this student has had 4 rejections without interview. Combine this with excellent references, work experience in hospitals, a host of extra curricular activities and a determination to succeed as a doctor and you have someone who should be given a chance.
