New from me @TheAtlantic: The birth-rate crisis isn’t as bad as you’ve heard. It’s worse. Humanity is set to shrink decades ahead of schedule.

Just ask the UCs, who claim that it doesn't even help your application to be from a poor family necessarily, and according to them, the process is too complex to even assume better grades would help!
