He's a troll mate :smile:
yes, definitely, I just got an offer from Cambridge with 8a*s and 3as at gcse it really isn't a big factor, another thing to consider is how well you performed in relation to other people at your school, that's more important than the grades themselves. so a person applying with your grades from a private grammar school where many people get 12 a*s wouldn't be looked upon as favourably as someone who got 6a*s but went to a state school and massively outperformed their peers. either way though those GCSE results are excellent and are above the average for an Oxford offer holder, the average being 7/8 a* grades

I hate people like such. Have no ambition themselves and strive to kill the ambition of other students with great potential.

Ps. Your GCSEs are phenomenal, I hope you get into the college you desire and get an outstanding result in alevels and UNI

surely someone with these GCSE's should be able to google an answer instead of asking people when they're showing off?
