Is grade 6 in GCSE a bad grade

Is grade 6 in all subjects across the board for gcse bad?

Depends on what you want to do; if you want to study medicine at uni it can be perceived as catastrophic by many applicants but something like accountancy won't really be affected by it.

depends what sector of finance, companies don't look at GCSEs but your A-levels and university are important so unless your GCSEs affect those you will be fine. For example, if you wanted to do investment banking (and maximise your chances to be rich/succesful) you'd need to apply to target universities which are very competitive and most likely will look at your gcses. Oxford definitely will and the others it depends what courses really but I'd imagine all successful applicants will have atleast a few 8/9s under the belt. Do some research.
