I was in GATE when it was still at Oakley Centre (before it was cool!) and I was tested to get in. Not sure that my parents had any idea quite frankly. I'm not trying to say that makes me special or anything (I assure you it doesn't), but it wasn't a case of status for my parents or anything like that.
