Cambridge law??

I'm thinking of:
Cambridge (MAIN HOPE IS THIS SO ADVICE ON WHETHER I WILL MAKE A COMPETITIVE APPLICATION)

My grades are as follow
GCSE 8 A's 2 B's
AS Levels (based on current performance) 92% across top 3 and strong A in fourth one.
A levels (predictid) A* A* A* A (I'm carrying on with four)

What A levels are you taking?

Given that your GCSEs are decent but nothing special, what has so improved your work ethic/ability that you're on course for those A levels?

My friend who is tagged should be able to tell you more as he is going on to study Law at Cambridge next year

So I'm in my first year of college meaning that uni choices are coming up.

LSE
UCL
Kings College London
Southampton
All for law (hence the title)

Like I said above advice mainly on Cambridge but other options also thanks.

If yiu specifically avoid Churchill College with those GCSEs you should be reasonably competive for Cambridge.

What are your A-Level?

Thanks for that advice, I heard that that was a hard college haha and Law History Economcis and English Lit

Yep, they won't look at you unless you have at least 5A* GCSEs for Law.

Yeah I heard about that haha I'll be sure to avoid that particular college, do you want to do law at uni ?

Nope. I'm a parent of an Engineering place holder.

I'm German and a long-time lurker on this form. I do not have IGCSEs. I have weak German secondary qualifications. I'm doing both AS and A2 this year in econs, law and politics.

I'm thinking of pulling the plug on my UCAS application for this year and applying to Cambridge for next year's intake. I have received law conditional offers for this year's intake from York, Birbeck, Sussex and Sunderland. I also got an offer from Bath for politics with economics.

Will have stellar A level grades be enough? Will the fact that I do not have IGCSEs affect my application? What do you think?

Hey, it really all depends on how good your A Level grades are. I have no idea about German qualifications - to know for sure about Cambridge's position etc. you have to just call them up, or ask one of their TSR representatives

can you share with us about your Cambridge application journey? where are you from?
