That's a fine set of GCSEs, you won't be judged on them at all.

Thank you for your response! When I spoke to someone, despite me working very hard for my chem grade, they suggested that unis will think my A* predicted grade is unrealistic as my gcse grade isn’t as high

Thank you for your response! My concern is that my gcse grade was a 6 in chem and even though is toed really hard to get a better grade for a level, (A*) they’ll think it’s not ‘authentic’.

Okay thank you so much! If you don’t mind me asking, what did you get the B and U in?

They genuinely won't. People massively overstate the importance of GCSEs. As long as you achieve a 6 in English and Maths (which you have), you're golden, so stop worrying about it :smile:
