Ours just came in too. 2500 is much higher than recent years, right? I seem to remember more like 2200 before? Wonder why. Bigger cohort?

Somewhere it certainly said 'nearly 2500' last year but i seem to remember when the figures came out it was actually only just over 2400.
Either way if you look at it in the cold light of day, if your DC is bright enough it is still statistically not that hard to get 'a grammar place'.

Especially if your DC is a DD.
