Is my a level combination strong enough?

Hi so I’ve picked my a levels: chemistry further maths and English lit. However I’m worried my combination isn’t strong enough and I’m keeping my options too open. I’m predicted all 9s at GCSE (currently in year 11) and I am aiming for oxbridge but haven’t decided what for yet (chemistry, law or maths). Would you say my combination is strong enough for those degree options??

Thank you in advance :smile:

I can't speak for law, but I imagine that'll be absolutely fine for maths or chemistry - you've got two maths and a science, so your fourth probably doesn't really matter for those :smile:

Thank you! I guess I’m just worried about the competition at the top unis and if I choose a chemistry degree, my application won’t be as strong by not having physics or biology 😕

I think law only requires one essay subject, so you should be fine!

Cheers :smile:
