Can I go to Oxbridge with these GCSE Grades?

I got 8888888876 at GCSE. I know universities care more about A-Levels but I haven't seen anyone go to Oxbridge without any 9's. I have seen students with 1 or 2 9's but never 0. Which university, Oxford or Cambridge is more likely to accept a student with no 9s but really good A-Levels.

In answer to your last question, Oxford generally pays more attention to GCSE grades than Cambridge. This is especially so in the shortlisting process (i.e. deciding who gets interviewed).

And you also have 4 other choices so you need to look a bit wider than just 'Oxbridge'.
It also depends on which subject you wanna study as some e.g. medicine, pay more attention to your gcses when shortlisting
