Universities are not free anymore in most states of Germany. And the selection after 4th grade is very much determined by the area you live in because you have to send your kids to the public school where you live.

Tuition was common for a while, but it isn't anymore. Lower Saxony is the only state where you still have to pay it and they're abolishing next year [1].
