Are my GCSE's Oxbridge Level?

For what subject at Oxbridge?

ignore the trolls, they are fine for oxbridge. I believe the average successful applicant has something like that.

I dont think they care about gcses....

I wouldn't call that trolling, more just making a sarcastic comment. The grades are clearly excellent and definitely good enough for Oxbridge.

Although they aren't quite as important as A Level predictions and AS scores, they will be very important since AS Levels are being phased out.

There will be many applicants who do not do the "reformed" AS Level and so GCSEs will be a very important indicator as it is the only set of public examinations. Sometimes teachers' predictions, reference, internal exams etc. just are not controlled enough and so you should definitely not discount GCSEs.

I dont know how cambridge works but pretty much all oxford courses are shortlisted from the admissions test where its a simple case of making it above the cut off line... and once you're at the interview gcses personal statements a2 predictions are the last things they would care about

I don't believe that it is how it works. It is true that Admissions tests are used to shortlist candidates down and invite them to the interview. But the application process is not a "hurdle" system where once you get to the interview, that is the only thing that is taken into consideration. Applications are examined "holistically" where the whole application is taken into consideration.

errrmm ask anyone at oxf and they would tell you A2 predictions PS and GCSEs do not matter at the interview stage...though opinions do vary on how much they look at the admissions test after interview

So once you get past the "cut-off" point, and get an interview, it is a completely even playing field? Seems VERY unfair to candidates with a good paper application, does it not?

Found this on the PPE (just picked a random course) oxford application page:
1. UCAS ApplicationYou need to apply a year before the start date of PPE by completing the online application form at www.ucas.com. Applications open in early September, and the deadline is 18.00 BST on 15 October every year.2. Admissions TestAll applicants must sit the Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA), normally at their own school or college, in early November. It is your responsibility to register for the test. The registration deadline is normally 18.00 BST on 15 October every year. For the exact test date in the year of your application, along with further information, details of how to register, and a specimen paper, see www.tsaoxford.org.uk.3. InterviewTutors decide which applicants to shortlist for interview, and which applicants to deselect, in late November or early December. Interviews for shortlisted applicants normally take place in early to mid December.4. DecisionsDecisions about offers of places for shortlisted applicants will use the full range of evidence available, including past and predicted exam results, the school report, the personal statement, the TSA admissions test, and the interviews. Shortlisted applicants are told whether or not their application has been successful in early January.

I don't think its completely even, but it's certainly very heavily skewed towards the interview with some contribution from the admissions test (physics claims to be 50% but no one actually believes that). And yes I do believe this is very unfair but that's just how it appears to be done. They claim they will look at everything but I believe thats for other reasons and in reality it's very different. BUT they certainly would use data from elsewhere to judge if the candidate was for example seriously ill during the interview and couldn't perform.

I'm sending one off for a re-mark, so maybe they'll mark me up. But as it stands now, are my GCSE's at Oxbridge potential?
