Help!! We have until Thursday to decide on Surbiton High (on an Academic Scholarship) of Guildford High. My DD is a good allrounder, sporty but not a genius and has been really really lucky to have been offered an academic scholarship to Surbiton and a place at GHS. The results at GHS are amazing but I am concerned that DD will lose confidence at the school because everyone is so bright. Also heard it is really pushy and competitive and don't want DD to feel too much pressure. Surbiton seems more "real" and Ive heard scholars are well looked after but the results are quite bad and I'm concerned that DD may end up coasting. ANY ADVICE would be really appreciated. Thanks so much
