Can anyone help me with this question, please?

During Oxford and Cambridge interviews, would the interviewers be able to see which school a candidate attended?

Yes it comes through on the ucas form.

Yes. It was a running joke at my college that there was always one (at least) geography student from a particular grammar school, that also happened to be the school the college's geography fellow attended.

All bright students, and worthy of places individually, but it still stinks!

Yes - my interviewer commented warmly on the fact that I'd gone to a state school. I got in - but to a college I'd been pooled to.

Yes, all unis have this info, it's needed for those that make contextual offers.
