Neuroscience at Oxford - what are my chances?

Hey guys, I'm looking to complete a Pharmacology degree at Kingston University and am really interested in doing Neuroscience afterward. I was looking at Oxford University and was wondering what are my chances of getting in?

I didn't do A Levels at college, so I feel that would hinder my application, nor did I go to a top university. Would I still be a strong applicant with a first class degree?
Go for it. :smile:
You might get in, so take a chance.
Because If you do not apply, you definitely will not get in.

Oxbridge are known for taking applicants with varied backgrounds. Especially mature students or postgrads. As long as you can impress them with interviews/ life experience etc. They really take that stuff over exam results. And I guess like all things make sure you apply to a few different places to increase your chances. Good luck!!
