Oxbridge admissions should be based on merit, as should any other uni admissions for that matter. Our ability to assess merit may be limited, imperfect, failure-prone - but surely that's a reason to improve it, not get rid of it? It seems to make rather less sense to base admissions on some sort of political correctness quota, IMO, or pretty much anything else.

But if you suspect that best measures you have of merit are skewed according to other facts about the applicant...?
