    Oxbridge Interview Chances???
    I completed A levels in 2011 getting A*A*A and opted to do an activity that required taking 2 years between school and university. As I was far too busy last October I delayed applying until this year as it made no difference to when I went to university. In order to polish my application I resat a module taking the A up to another A*. However having spoken to a friend I'm now a little worried that taking a 2 year period out and retaking a module post A2 will prevent me from getting to interview at Oxbridge. Do you think this is true?

    No? You have probably already met the offer with those grades so I would have thought you would be guaranteed an interview at the very least
