    I'd like to know this also, I'm going to apply to five ways too this year.
    I live pretty far away from it (10ish miles) and am predicted all A's and A*'s and already achieved A*'s in Maths, Business studies and English Language.
    According to the guys I know in the year above who got there, they take around 50 externals each year.
    Will you be applying to any of the other grammars?

    Hi, Guys, i'm in year 12 and was in you're position last year.
    Honestly, as long as you're predicted A*/A in the subject you want to continue, you will probably not have a problem getting an offer. But it really depends on you're subjects. A person doing Maths, Chemistry, Biology, Physics is probably going to have mainly A*'s and A's as these subjects are heavily subscribed. What subjects were you thinking?

    Maths Chemistry Biology...dunno about the last one :/ but isnt there alot of people who apply? and if theres only 50 places you must need quite a few A*'s...i dont think i stand a chance
