Make the entry requirements of certain courses more harder, and most mickey mouse finger painting degrees would be out the window.
A friend of mine is studying music with 1 G at alevel - just wtf! Piss take really. My requirement a few yrs bk was a MINIMUM of 7 A*s at gsce and A's in 3 alevels ffs. Then we had a selection test called UKCAT, Were if you don't score greater thn 600, your app was binned.
Courses like chem are still relatively piss easy to get into. But an actual worthwhile degree in industry.
The problem today is the 'uni experience' is waaay to tempting for those actually better off doing vocational courses. And they know it! 'Man Met' for example
