Not an exaggeration - although the highest minimum iffer for a course is I think A*A*A, I know several people who were required to get A*A*A* or higher -

They added the non-STEP option this year (2017 entry).

Highest "typical" Cambridge offer is A*A*A with 1,1 in STEP (i.e. the Maths offer). But, yes, higher offers are possible. My son had A*s specified in FM and Physics with Maths as 3rd A-level (for Engineering) - that's pretty much an A*A*A* offer. -

Quite a lot of the highest "typical" Cambridge maths offers is 2 A*'s but with the candidate having already gained an A* in maths in year 12 that doesn't count towards the 2 stars in the offer. -

But that wasn't the case for him - he did his A2 Maths & FM & Physics in Y13. -

I wasn't saying it was for him, I was just saying that the "typical" offer is often a 3 A*'s offer in disguise. -
