Description

Lotteries are widely used to decide places (seats) at schools, colleges and universities.

Conall Boyle explores many examples to find out why.

The emotional turmoil that the use of ballots can cause to students and parents alike is graphically described.

But lottery selection teaches lessons too; now we can find proper answers to controversial questions like "Does choice work?"This book will be of interest to parents, pupils and teachers as well as educational administrators.

Any student applying for admission to a university course should learn about the amazing weighted lottery for entry to medical schools in the Netherlands.

There is a better way: it's a lottery!
