    What courses are you talking about? AFAIK, most universities will require are 4 AS level subjects atm (some medical schools).

    As far as I know with history (my friend who wants to study it at uni) no universities ask for 4 A-levels, they tend to prefer 3 with a 4th AS e.g. AAAc :-)

    Sorry guys, I meant at AS level... so do Oxford require you to have 4 A's at AS for you to apply?

    I think if it's just for one uni then it's better for you to research it yourself, different colleges vary. But correct if I'm wrong - predicted grades are more important and it's not the end of the world if you get 3 As and b or 2 As and 2Bs at AS, just make sure you have a good PS and good predicted grades :-)
