GCSEs for Oxford?

Hi,

I really am just looking for an honest answer here, I would love to study law with european law at the University of Oxford, but I think my GCSEs may be too low (999888777). Honest opinions? Should I even bother applying?

You’re probably fine, Oxford place way more emphasis on personal statement/A levels/interview/LNAT than GCSEs, GCSEs are basically bottom of their list of considerations. Also 7-9s are basically considered the same and won’t make much difference

7s, 8s, and 9s are really good! If you're passionate about your subject I would definitely recommend applying to Oxford/Cambridge. It's worth a go and you don't lose anything from giving it a try.
