Oxford or Cambridge?

GCSE: 7 A*s, 3 As
AS: English lit: A (very low)
History: A
German: A
Maths: A (with very high UMS)
I want to study Law at uni

I haven't been to Cambridge, but I fell in love with Oxford when I visited it and would love to go there! But I heard all the exams take place in the final year of Oxford... Which sounds a bit scary!!
Apparently Cambridge care less about GCSE, which may be better for me as my AS levels are stronger, but I don't know what Cambridge is like and I don't think I have a chance of finding out:frown:
Which would be better to apply for do you think?

Your GCSEs are fine. If you think you can do well in the LNAT (which is another factor in deciding who comes to interview), you should def consider applying for Oxford :yep:

Edit: As for the exams in final year thing... it's tricky, yes, BUT on the other hand, you are being examined at the peak of your academic learning! :biggrin:
