How much do Cambridge and LSE care about 1 B grade at GCSE?

I have 11 A* and 1 B (German) at GCSE. This is probably a pathetic question, but does this matter? I'm awaiting my AS results in maths, physics, geography and history, and I'm planning on applying for geography. Thanks.

I'd worry more about what they think of you as a person.

They won't care; you'll be fine :smile:. Cambridge place much higher importance on UMS anyway
Especially for a subject like Geography that isn't all that competitive in comparison to other subjects, you're absolutely fine providing you score really highly at AS.
