Oxford are very GCSE heavy, successful applicants have around 10 A*S at GCSE. Email the admissions tutors if you've got any concerns

Your A-Levels are perfect but your GCSEs could stop you getting in. Cambridge would be a very realistic option for you as they place more emphasis on A-Levels

Your a-levels are amazing, so you can apply to almost anywhere that doesn't look at GCSE's too much. Also you would have to take the UKCAT/BMAT for UK unis

You did do good, the people saying no are just being sarcastic. Just ignore them.
