If the A-levels are facilitating subjects then you could probably get into most/all UK universities.

Predicted A*A*A*. Most people will have that prediction when applying, and most of them will get rejected. It's possible you'll get in and it's possible you won't. Ignore the advice of the 16-year-old above; he in fact doesn't work the desk at the LSE LLB admission office.


ahaha thanks and I forgot to mention I have extenuating circumstances at GCSE

Are those your actual AS and A2 grades, or AS grades and A2 predictions, or predictions for both? If they are your actually grades you have a very strong chance. Even without extenuating circumstances for your GCSE's (which aren't that bad), no university can turn down an applicant with 3 A*'s lightly.

Even if they are just predictions, you still have a good chance (presuming your subject choices are decent).

ofc but if you meet the required grades, then its are you interesting enough based on your ps, then its how you do at interview.

these are what I am predicted for AS and hopefully for A2 , I'm just trying to get 4A's at AS to make up for my standard GCSE grades but thank you this has really given me faith
It says A* AA and you are predicting above that. Imo your ps and any interview ill outweigh your GCSE's

Glad to help. If you get 4 A's at AS you should definitely apply if that's what you want (and shouldn't be put off applying to Oxbridge as well).
You're predicted A*A*A*. That's all I'm going to say.
What's a level you doing ?
