A practical checklist for parents weighing the decision, from results to the things the prospectus never mentions.

Ask the people who actually read applications about entry requirements, deadlines and what makes a candidate stand out.
Many funded places are announced and explained at fairs months before the public deadline. Early sight is half the work.
