It depends on the course, but generally, your grades should be fine for Oxbridge. Your GCSEs only make up one part of your application. There are other things factored in such as your A levels, admissions tests performance, your personal statement and contextual data.

Apparently Oxford considers 8 and 9 as the same, which is ridiculous to me but oh well.
