AS level query

I got ABC at AS with a C in Maths. I aim to redo the maths modules to get the higher grades which I know I am capable of acheiving (am predicted A*A*A*A) but ue to the reformed A level our AS grades do not count or at the least Uni's wont place as much emphasis on them as not all colleges do them. Is there a way for my college or for me not to put my AS grades as they are quite weak in comparison to the typical 4As. I'm still applying for Oxford and other highly ranked Uni's (Durham York etc) but Im worried over my grades.

Thank you in advance and please don't give me advice on if I should be applying for the course etc etc if you're not gonna be helpful please don't feel compelled to post.

Ive done AS and am doing A2, because of the reformed A levels however there is no certification for AS as they're not linear. I am so confused

Thanks for answering tho
