Am I good enough for Oxford?

Oxford places a heavy emphasis on GCSEs. The average number of A*s of a successful candidate is around 11A*s. However I think a very high entrance exam score can compensate for a slightly lower number of A*s to get an interview. You definitely do have a shot though. Don't worry about what other people have or not.

According to a recent Freedom of Information response, for PPE, the average number of A*s at GCSE is 8 (for those offered an interview) or 8.5 (for those offered a place). Between 24% and 38% of those interviewed had just 5 A*s. The link also describes the relative importance of different components of an application.

Hey would you know the average amount of A stars for Physics? x

I have 999988887 for my GCSEs (predicted) and I want to apply for ox PPE but there's a few of other kids in my school that have better GCSEs than I do that may apply to oxford, do I have a shot? or am I just being naive?

Bear in mind Oxford do not distinguish between 8 and 9 grades at GCSE currently and consider both equivalent to the old A*. So you have 8 A*s, with an 88% proportion of A* grades from your GCSEs overall. I imagine you will be competitive with a good TSA score, provided you are also taking A-level Maths.

The average number of A*s of a successful candidate is around 11A*s.

Ultimately it's more about how well you do after GCSEs, but those GCSE scores definitely aren't going to cause you to get rejected. I don't think I know anyone who got 11 A*s or more and I did noticeably worse than you at GCSE. Don't compare yourself to others and focus on developing your aptitude for and broadening your interest in PPE because that's what really matters.
