Uni entry requirements

Hi

I'm studying abroad but will go to Uk for University. Two questions:

How many A levels do you need to get into a good Uni?

I've been reading about requirements mentioning BBc related to A-levels. What is BBC?

Thank you

4 subjects at As, 3 carried on to A2, usually :yep:

BBC refers to the grades at A2.

Hi thanks

So, is BBC good or bad? I thought it went from A+ all the down to E in single letters. Or does it mean 3 subjects: 2 at B, and 1 at C?

Hi

Sorry. I went out...

I have a flat in Oxford and the priority is to get in there. However, they don't have Europen Studies which was my choice for the first degree. Both Oxford and Brookes have Modern Languages but apparently nowadays they only lead to a cashier's job at McDonalds!

So, maybe International Relations (but not PPE - I hate Maths) or History and Politics at Oxford, but I wanted to be helped along with languages as I am fluent in 3 foreign ones.

I don't know what to do but still have time (a lot...)

Help!
