Are there more questions from the UK than usual?

Question

This question is for section regulars. I've not been here long enough to know if it's a normal variation, but when I arrived questions from parents and children in the UK seemed to be rare. Now they seem much more common. I wonder if recent positive press coverage over here has fuelled a bit of a boom or maybe it's the time of year with exam pressure and failure to get into desirable schools. Any thoughts?

Answer 1

I've noticed this too, but I don't know why.  Of course I don't see the press from that side of the pond.  

It could be because of the exam pressure and maybe just plans for next year cross minds.

I like it because it broadens our horizons beyond the states.
