Queen's in Belfast had a minimum requirement last year, for entry in 2004, of 6A*s at GCSE (don't quote me on this figure but it was something around 6 or 7 A*s), apparently this may go down slightly for 2005 entry as there are going to be more places available.

ah, that would be one i didn't know of then! :wink:

Queen's has probably the strictest entrance offers ever, its like AAA and A in AS subject. Plus its in Northern Ireland, where the education system is absoubtely amazing. I speak form first hand experience.

I presume you went to school heer for some time?

I agree the system is much better than that in other parts of the UK, but unfortunately this may no longer be so when the 11+ is to be scraped.
